I've had this sort of thing happen to me in class a lot. I've also had an NT react to me like Crazy Work Lady, which I later realised was because she had feelings for me and didn't want to. NT's are so wierd - except they're normal :o .


they say its normal to be wierd (they actually confess to being the wierd ones), so therefore as we are not like them, we must be normal... :lol:

well, theres one thing wrong with hating NT's. we are NOT SEPERATE SPECIES. everyone could'v been born with AS. and every AS could'v been born without. AS is actually a modifyer of who you otherwise are/would be. so if you didnt get born with AS, you would'v been an NT yourself. see? you cant generalise NT's without adding yourself to the equation, since NT's and aspergers are the same species.

rather, you would just hate humans (join the club), for traits such as judgementality or whatever aggrivates you, and attribute the disorder AS to be what can alter humans such as to be compatible with yoru preferences.

Eh? I'll live with that one though. Might as well. I'm a sociopath.

When sh*t happens ppl tend to look for a scapegoat to blame it on.


Wow, that sounds exactly like my place of work to the highest level. But I deal with scapegoateeism the instant it happens. My retort is usually the following ' (fake yawn) are we going down the 'Pass The Buck' road again? Please change the record, I'm tired of listening to this one, it's too predictable'.

ARGGG. Everything about the social interaction is just driving me crazy!! !! I need to type it out, and no better place, I think, than WRONGPLANET.NET to do it.

I'm really pissed off. This one girl I work with just comes at me from NOWHERE on the occasion and just starts attacking me, saying I do nothing. It's really bothersome. It's not as if I bother anyone too. She comes up to me and starts saying that I am not working on my given task, even though it's untrue. I don't understand. The only explanation I can come up with is that she wants to underexaggerate what I do to prove some point.

Does anyone else have problems at work? I'm not sure if I have AS or not, so they, my co-workers may perceive me as 'normal', or NT, where I am not.


There are always people like this. It's a people trait, not an overall NT trait. She is just picking the person she thinks is most likely to take it and not fight back to deflect attention from herself. Just look at her and say, "What's the matter? Don't you have enough work that you feel the need to monitor mine?" That's really what is going on. She's afraid others will notice she has no work or is working on the wrong tasks.

If she really keeps it up, ask her, "Wow. Do you feel better about yourself when you do this?"

She'll reveal herself to everyone. You are not the only she will do this to and it will get her noticed...in a bad way. That type always exposes themself in the end. They just can't help it.

She has a bigger issue than you do so don't let it ruin your days at work.
