No, I am never described as intense and I don’t think I have the same characteristics as some of the people that I find intense although, that may be subjective and so I could well be intense to others. People used to tell me that I was aloof but that hasn’t happened for a long time. I’m obviously a lot more approachable nowadays than I was then!
As my job is very customer based, working with them to train or rehabilitate their pets which, like working with troubled children, can sometimes be a very sensitive issue for owners/parents, I try not to make people feel uncomfortable when I am communicating with them so I remain as lighthearted as possible.
