0-30
Work is just not the focus of life, at least not in your present job. Your own pleasure rules over the good of the company, and you are rarely hesitate to use less-than-honest tactics to get what you want-long vacations, freebies from the office, and whatever else you can pilfer. This may be simply a symptom of extreme unhappiness in your present position, unpleasant working conditions or an unfair boss. Whatever the root of your behavior, you may want to consider either changing companies or toning down the sneaky tricks or you could find yourself without any job at all.

35-80
You seem able to maintain a healthy balance between work and personal life. Your job is fairly important to you, but it is not the focus of your existence. Your employer certain values your well-intentioned work ethic, but you sometimes resort to sneaky tricks or you could find yourself without any job at all.

85-100
You are the employee that every company desires. When your boss snaps his fingers, you jump through hoops. Your job is a top priority in your life, and you give it your all. You may be trying to work your way to the top of the ladder, or simply love your job. Your sense of personal identity is likely strongly connected to your job, so when you perform well it adds to your sense of self-worth. However, sacrificing too much for your job can actually backfire, resulting in resentment or even burnout. The more fulfilled you are in your personal life, the more creative energy you’ll bring to your work.
