(15,758 posts)Why am I not surprised? Work, work, work, stay poor. That's me! I'd take a Mr. Bates, though.
You are basically the best employee ever. Competent, practical and tough, you can handle anything life throws at you - whether its rude colleagues, secretive romantic partners or surprise dead bodies in the workplace. Your kindness and loyalty are to be admired, and that Bates fellow should really recognize what a catch you are.

(21,904 posts)You are John Bates, valet to Lord Grantham. You probably have a secret identity or are lying about your past to someone you care about, but at least you feel really bad about it. On the plus side, youre loyal and hardworking, and youd never rat anyone out to the boss, even when they really deserve it. Noble and a bit mysterious, youre a genuinely decent person and everyones wondering when youre just going to tell that nice Anna girl how you feel.
Only exception is I might rat someone out to my boss.

You are Lady Sybil Crawley. The youngest daughter of Lord Grantham, youre compassionate, strong, and really concerned about social justice. Youd also like to be able to vote. The bravest and most idealistic member of your family, youre the most likely to end up at a political rally, try and help a servant to a better job, or scandalize your sisters by wearing pants to a party.

edit: I took the quiz again and now I'm Robert, Earl of Grantham
You are Robert, Earl of Grantham. Honest and old-fashioned, youre primarily motivated by honor and duty. Youre so honorable, youre actually willing to let a virtual stranger inherit all your worldly goods rather than risk breaking up your familys legacy. Some people might call you a stick in the mud, but you can be extremely generous and forgiving toward those you feel have earned your loyalty.
