Perfectionism
Between the line of work that I am in and the atmosphere of the towns that the work is located in, I think that I can make a few classifications of perfectionism. I thought that this was rather interesting, myself.
Perfectionism in people can be classified in three groups:
Perfectionist #1: The true perfectionist.
The type who labors for endless hours upon end to achieve the exactness of his desires. The one who will be driven insane until he reaches the utmost in absoluteness. This is what I refer to as the "Ship in a Bottle" people. Perfectionist #1 is the only type of personality that would every spend the immense amount of time trying to put a ship in a bottle. Once in there, you can be assured that it is going to be exactly as he likes.
Perfectionist #2: The rich perfectionist.
The type who, either through years of working from the ground up, inheriting an immense sum of money, or growing up in the wealthy environment, achieve the perfection of their dreams through the throwing around of money. In actual fact, these people are often lazy and, left to fend for themselves, would never be able to live the life that they do by means of their will to work for it. Thus, they end up going to the lake in their boat so that the landscapers can fix up their lawn and garden. The objects of their affection are usually their lawn, their car(s), their "artwork" in the house, and their pets. These people are whom I refer to as the "Chives, re-arrange that planter. The coloring is slightly asymmetric in this light" people.
Perfectionist #3: The Engineer.
The type who spend hours mathematically defining their situation, then build 5 different scale models to show their correctness. These are the people whom I refer to as the "This is absolutely 100% perfect within + or - .001 inches. How can I make it better?" perfectionists.
