Color Career Counselor

So I just took this quiz that evaluates what careers you should look into based on your color preferences.  I remember doing this (it's based on the Dewey Color System) back in 5th grade.  I am quite satisfied with the results:

This report based on your personality traits indicates your two most enjoyable day-day-day occupation skills. It’s a summary of the full report, the Color Leadership Evaluation 5.0.
“Studies indicate workplace enjoyment is the key to success. So as you read, consider only “Was I mostly having fun at work?” Disregard your present and past employer’s environment.

WOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I mean, clearly I would have selectively endorsed this quiz.  Because it says I should be a lawyer, it is definitely accurate.  If it had said I should be a soccer player, I would have called it crock.
