Carolyn Burnham MBTI Personality Type
Personality
What personality type is Carolyn Burnham? Carolyn Burnham is an ESTJ personality type in MBTI, 3w2 - so/sp - 316 in Enneagram, SLOEN in Big 5, LSE in Socionics.
Carolyn is the materialistic, ambitious, insecure, seemingly successful, lonely wife of Lester. She takes her job as a real estate agent very seriously, chanting to herself, “I will sell this house today” as she cleans the homes meticulously (Si). She's attracted to power and success; her entire life revolves around a twisted desire to succeed (type 3). "Now listen to me. This is an important business function. As you know, my business is selling an image, and part of my job is to live that image…". Her desire to seek admiration, acceptance and love through accomplishment can be seen when she berates herself "Stop it. You... Weak! You baby!" after numerous customers rejected her offer (3w2). She is very into making sure everything around her is—or at least appears to be—100% immaculate. When she and her husband almost share a moment of passion after apparently years of indifference (at best) and hostility (at worst), she interrupts it to make sure he doesn't spill beer on the couch (Te-Si). She is pretty concern about Lester's job (e.g. frustrated at how Lester took his time dressing himself up for work), and was furious about quitting his job. "You father seems to think that this kind of behave is something to be proud of!" (Te-dom) Her Ne can be seen as she seeks for relationship with Buddy (who is a much more successful real estate agent than her) out of her marriage in an attempt to improve her success and image (in what I called "leeching"), together with her witty remarks as shown below: "And I want to thank you for putting me under the added pressure of being the sole breadwinner now! Don't give a second thought about who is gonna pay for the mortgage. Just leave it all to Carolyn! "You mean you gonna take care of everything now Carolyn?" "Yes! I don't know, I really don't." "You mean everything? You don't mind having the sole responsibility? Your husband feels like he can just quit his job?"" "Oh you don't complain? Oh please, excuse me, I must be psychotic then! If you don't complain, what is this? Yeah, just bring in the laughmeter and see how loud it gets on that one!"
