Unsafe rides in amusement parks!--That is so like my boss. She will go on and on about some miniscule infringement on her safety and comfort that nobody else would even notice. She just might be an S, maybe an S trying to be an N. (Same way she's convinced herself she's a 9!.) She does this by using the words "big picture" a lot, like in every other sentence. But she is rather sensate in that she is pretty detail-oriented, ridiculously into creature comforts and gourmet food, all of which I couldn't care less about. Give me a mat on the floor, a box of crackers, and a wall to stare at, and I'm good.
