I mean, it seems like a lot of what I do that's 'intelligent' is data analysis and pattern recognition.
Just make sure the word 'intuition' is in your job description somewhere, and those nasty bitbuckets can never take your place.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Guess what! I HAVE A DOOR! My office actually has a door,now that opens and closes like anything.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

You know, more and more I think that 'intuition' is just experience that you don't notice in the background.

But Malcolm Gladwell (in Blink) argues that what we think of as intuition is actually deeply ingrained and very fast-acting pattern recognition. (Do I have a written job description for "human"?)

Either Jesse IS Malcolm Gladwell, or she's just intuitive.
I have the vanishingly rare opportunity of being alone in my house for approximately the next half-hour. I can't think of the last time this happened. And what am I doing? The same thing I do at work all day. Sigh.
