Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Tank: aggressive, I win/you lose. Goal is control at all Know it all: dominates conversation. Wont listen to other. eliminates opposition by finding flaws and weakness. Think they know it All : do not know what they are talking about but they have a skill for conversation and act like a professional. May be person: nervous with unclearness No person: pessimistic. Fell like they have no control over anything. Power can’t be trusted. Whiners: nothing it seems is ever right for them
