re: OT Time-waster: Which personality type are you?

That test nailed my personality. Thanks for the link.

I'm a ENFP (campaigner).

Where ENFPs do not shine is in systems of strict regimentation and hierarchy, such as military service. ENFPs thrive on the ability to question the status quo and explore the alternatives

I hate the status quo and love looking for reasonable alternatives.

Many other types are likely to find these qualities irresistible, and if they've found a cause that sparks their imagination, ENFPs will bring an energy that oftentimes thrusts them into the spotlight, held up by their peers as a leader and a guru - but this isn't always where independence-loving ENFPs want to be. Worse still if they find themselves beset by the administrative tasks and routine maintenance that can accompany a leadership position. ENFPs' self-esteem is dependent on their ability to come up with original solutions, and they need to know that they have the freedom to be innovative - they can quickly lose patience or become dejected if they get trapped in a boring role.

That's me. Love coming up with ideas and finding solutions, but I hate mundane details, busy work, and red tape. Even describes my current feelings about my current role.
