Enneagram 9w1. I get annoyed a lot usually by others carelessness , either at work or of someone else's feelings, but always hold it in for sake of harmony but always comes out at weird times making others think I'm easily offended.
Type 1 here. I laughed at first when told--as a One,--I had a foundation of anger. I'm one of the most in-control people I know, or so I thought. Later, with the help of the Enneagram, I saw how anger was indeed a factor in my life; like a pot always simmering. What blinded me to the obvious was, as a moral One, outright anger and rage is unacceptable, so I stuffed it...keeping it from coming out the front door but helpless as it exited the back door as criticism and judging.
ISTJ Enneagram One's in my life usually bottle up their anger and if it finally comes out they are spitting fire. The negative emotions associated triggering the anger will usually stick for many years. Not easy to erase that hard-disk...
8w7 here and in a business meeting others usually think I'm the boss because of my strong energy. My controlling ENTJ manager doesn't like it and wants to work me out. Not a smart move, as I don't have ambition to be the boss and could have been his contributing team-member to make his team look good. I see his Machiavellian games as a challenge and despite my low Ni, I'm seeing through most of the traps he's setting up for me. The troops love and support me so he might win the battle but I think he will lose the war. If the choice is keeping my job or giving up my freedom to be a submissive slave to my boss, I will chose freedom. I'm OK with anger and conflict. I'm not looking for conflict or like to be angry but I don't avoid it either. To me, it's a way to release energy like thunder in a rainstorm. After a while, the sun will emerge again and the negative energy in me will be gone.
As a type 1, you totally nailed it!! I have multiple projects going on organizing things in all aspects of life. Everything needs to be clean, neat and it's in place. I don't have a lot of things on purpose because I am more efficient this way...less stuff, less cleaning, and more organized. On anger yes I feel internal anger very much...people don't have the high standards that I do. But I make sure to not let anger control me, but it comes out in the way of being annoyed, frustrated and direct... unlike an 8 I think has no problem expressing the anger outwardly.
I have been thinking about this today. To find the root of all the reactions and craziness my mind gets into, I had to think of my childhood. My dad is an ESTP and mom INFP (just for context). My childhood was such that I had to protect one parent while confront and oppose the other one. I was the kid who just said to the parents: ‘You two should get a divorce. Your marriage isn’t working.’ Not a typical reaction for a kid. But their marriage was stressful for everyone involved (which is more than just the two of them). Dad used to do whatever while mom adhered to certain rules and traditions she wanted to uphold. I have learned my strong dislike towards lies (of any kind) to be followed by anger channeled into rebellion. So, imagine a kid with wild spirit and imagination being forced to sit inside a car by using lies. I would kick and scream and break the window if necessary and find my way out of such suffocating situation (imo).
As a type 8... All I actually want to say is thank you. :)

Crucial outlooks that clear up past sounds thank you
