Being abusively extroverted is great and all so long as said person can actually handle all the details of the task at hand, which usually they cannot. Which is why being cerebral is so important regardless of being an introvert or extrovert (for the record, I can be both, in a weird bi-polar kind of way). In this case, tendering my resignation based simply on "this is not fun anymore" had my extroverted boss on the phone within 24 hours offering to double my pay along with a whole host of concessions I had been asking for for months.
What is more important than being introverted or extroverted, is being important. If you're the brains of something, then chances are that extroverted ####### jerk in reality actually NEEDS you, although they would be loathe to admit it publicly. And so long as you're comfortable in your knowledge of this, you can Dale Carnegie them into pretty much anything.
