How right you are; how sloppy of me. Dennis is indeed an E6 with a lot of E4 in himself.
Here are the E6 symptoms of Dennis:

- humour as defense mechanism
- hero worship (remember the photo of the famous atomic scientist at his desk?)
- active rebellion against authority and active accusation of others; distrust Hammond pays him his market value as employee: paranoia-akin
- creation of personal dream in which he is the clever hero (there's a link with Hitler's distorted mindset here)
- his funnily intimidating/provoking of the fobic 'FBI agent-look alike' also is E6: testing people in a semi-humoristic way
- the sweat on his tense face
- he switches between unrealistic over-selfconfidence and under-selfconfidence (attaching his self-valuation to the money he gets)

Actually I have one of the trainers who work for me who thinks he gets too little money and became a pain in the ass in the way Dennis came to Hammond; keeps calling me on the phone; he has done so much and now we don't value him etc. etc (serial talking)

Thanks for your feedback; it keeps me awake.

Jan
