Libbell - Life of a Chinese Gold Farmer

            This article was about a Chinese guy named Li Qiwen and tells us that he plays World of Warcraft for his job. He explains to us the game, and how World of Warcraft is a fantasy title where people create avatars and disguising themselves. The players need coins to buy gear, weapons, etc... and they get those coins by either playing until they have enough coins or paying someone else to get their coins. Li works with 9 other workers, and reports how much coins he got to his supervisor, and that's how he gets paid, by every amount of certain coins he gets, he gets paid a certain amount of money. Businesses like these that are neither owned or operated are called gold farms.
           The video was showing us how their life-style was like and if they can't make money, they try to have fun playing the game together. It also shows us their life-style and how they work for 12 hours, seven nights a week, having only two or three days off a month.

The MBTI Test Results

          I got the description ISFJ, which stands for Introvert, Sensing, Feeling, and Judging. This description means that people who fall into this category are characterized by their desire to help others, and are loyal. They also have close friends, and work well when working together in a small group or one on one because they do have patience and have a sympathetic approach when working with others. ISFJ are accurate and methodical workers, meaning they do the step by step procedure, and often find an unexpected analytic ability.
          I agree with some of the description when they say ISFJ do like helping others and are loyal, and I do have a few, close friends, and am patience. I kind of disagree with the description working accurately and following each step carefully, because I do tend to make a mistake or two and every now and then, I'll switch up the recipe.
