Jeff is ambitious, selfish and competitive. He desperately wants to be viewed as the best and tries to project an image to others that he is better than everyone else. Jeff takes an attitude that he is above going to Greendale and shows distain for the predicament he finds himself in as he believes he is not like the other students who need Greendale.

Jeff is very vain and concerned with his outward appearance. He takes great pride in the way he looks and dresses and often spends more time worried about his looks than more pressing issues. Jeff also has a penchant for the finer things in life and grew accustomed to a very lavish lifestyle when he was a lawyer.

At his best, Jeff becomes more cooperative and caring to the needs of his friends. He starts to appreciate their friendship and admits that he has grown fond of both his friends and Greendale. At his worst, Jeff makes questionable choices to achieve his goals. He was shown to be very deceitful and underhanded in his previous career as a lawyer and this behaviour still occurs at times when he is at Greendale.

At the beginning of the series Jeff finds it very easy to lie to all those around him and thinks that he can talk his way out of any situation. He believes that he will be able to skate through school and won’t need to put any real effort or work into getting his law degree. He thinks he will be able to use this degree and go back to his previous life with very little inconvenience and the people he meets along the way won’t need to be in his life anymore.

As the series continues, he begins to show growth and integration to 6 as he is more concerned with the groups goals, rather than his own. He has the opportunity to sue Greendale and go back to his former life, which he finds very enticing. However, as he grows he decides to stay with the study group and take on the role of teaching at Greendale.

Jeff has a wing 2 as he is more personable and willing to adapt to different situations to achieve his goals.

Some quotes to describe Jeff’s motivations:

“For your information, I don't have an ego. My Facebook photo is a landscape.”

“I'm wearing a $6,000 suit, and you spent three days making cardboard box robot armour.”

“The universe goes by supply and demand the more you take and demand, the more it sends.”

“What is it about me that make broken people flock to me? Is it my height? Do huddled masses mistake me for the statue of liberty?”

“It's called chemistry. I have it with everybody.”

“I don't step up to being leader, Troy. I reluctantly accept it when it's thrust upon me.”

Britta: I was a little too harsh on you, I'm not perfect Jeff: I am, I'd be happy to show you the ropes

Am I the only one who only gets the anxiety from their enneagram fixes and not so much their benefits (expect for the core ofc)

I may also be quite young but like I be going around saying I'm a 538 but the truth is I'm your anxious 5 wrecking who is also terrified of being a utter failure and disappointment (3) but is also angry at themselves for this because it means they're being controlled by society and sometimes gets butthurt because "prrt I know you bad guy stay away from me" (8) like wth

I think it's capitalism's fault
