Answer 1

Answer:b. Joe is a Type B personality

Explanation:

Type B personality individuals are more relaxed , easy going and tolerant .

They don't restrain themselves, if they get the opportunity to have fun they will grab it with both hands irrespective of how much work they may have to face afterwards.

Unlike type A personality individuals who are always worried about time due to their sense of urgency they don't see a need to be having fun when there is a lot of work that still need to be done and they stress a lot due to their aggressive nature .They always want to get ahead of everyone , life is a competition to them.

In the above text Joe leaves his work at work because he is a type B personality they treasure their relaxation time and always want to use it to the maximum.

They don't real take life as competition or see a need to get ahead of everyone which can be seen in non ambitious Joe above .

People with Type B personality tend to be more tolerant of others than Type A individuals because they are not competitors but they are more reflective, experience lower levels of anxiety and display a higher level of imagination and creativity.
