The 9 Enneagram Types Told By 'The Office'
NBC

In This Article:

The office is quite possibly one of the best comedies ever created, if you disagree, I'm concerned about your sense of humor. Everything is better when put in terms of the office, so it only seems fitting for the enneagram. Continue reading if you would like to know how I believe your enneagram type is portrayed by "The Office".

1. The Idealist

Type ones are idealists who are constantly striving to improve themselves. Don't take it personally if they call out your imperfections, they genuinely think they're helping.

2. The Helper

Two's are very interpersonal and they have a deep desire to be loved by others. They may apologize a lot simply because they are very conscious of other peoples needs.

3. The Achiever

Threes are usually quite the charmers, and it is truly perplexing when someone doesn't like them.

4. The Individualist

A type four is very creative and unique, but they also tend to be a bit melancholy. They feel their emotions a bit more intensely than the rest of us.

5. The Investigator

Fives are always eager to learn more and soak up all the knowledge that they can. They are typically filled with questions.

6. The Loyalist

A six is always prepared for the worst-case scenario.

7. The Enthusiast

Sevens are usually just happy to be here. I imagine they are the most likely people to be "raising the roof" in an office setting.

8. The Challenger

Eights are always ready for a challenge, in fact they often are the instigators. They certainly are not afraid of confrontation.

9. The Peacemaker

When work (or life) gets stressful, you know where to find a nine - avoiding responsibility. If you ignore it, it will go away, right?

If you're not a fan of how your number is portrayed, that's just confirmation that it is, in fact, your enneagram type. Often times, the enneagram is so true it hurts, and these scenes from "The Office" might just add insult to injury, but Michael Scott makes everything better.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
