[Ailist] A story

[Mike Sands]

I recently heard the following story - 

There was a conference attended by thirty-six HR managers - and they were seated around six tables - at each table there were people who easily fit into the following roles - 
a raving idealist, a jokester, a pessimist, a deep listener, a big spender and a penny pincher.  

For some reason the people at the tables got shuffled - and now there was one table with all the idealists, one with the jokesters, one with all the  pessimists etc. 

And lo and behold - after abd hour  - at each table someone had become: - easily and naturally -    

a raving idealist, a jokester, a pessimist, a deep listener, a big spender and a penny pincher.  




I suspect there is a lot of truth in that story - has anyone got another version of it - possibly one with a more entrancing story line?
