    I think Prius owners tend to be controlling and that they enjoy all they control their car offers. So come out you closet closet control freaks!!!

    By control freaks I define detail-oriented people who tend to see their expertise in technical oriented subjects and like to be in control usually because they don't trust others to do their job better.

    I voted category 4. :unsure:

    those are very positive ways of looking at control freaks.... i wanted to choose the "i understand detail better then anyone" just because it sounds like an admirable trait vs being a control FREAK. i chose average.

    You are asking the questions wrong.
    Seriously, you should have asked me the RIGHT way to do this.

    [I'm not really a control freak. Nope. I'm just.... right a lot.]

    You could have done a better job wording this poll, and for that matter the font size is a bit too small (said in a know-it-all voice). :D

    in grad school it's a trait that is eventually passed down from your PI, one of the many phases of becoming a phd.

    i try to limit it at home but DH will tell you that i fail miserably :lol:

    Your last choice incorrectly included the word "almost."
