As if! I'm sure lots of neurodivergent people would disagree with half of these points.

I'm looking at that list like, damn, that's exhausting.

"Using good body language" is literally a skill, and a hard one for some to learn. The others you can bicker about I guess

Im neurodivergent (at least i think) and all of these points are hard to meet lol

Frankly it would be ridiculous to expect even the most neurotypical person to be able to do all of this at all times.

I have no diagnosed neurodivergence and I’m looking at that list with surprise. Like, you know how fucking hard I’m working to pretend I can do that stuff?

A person who can do all that shit looks like a superhero to me. No talent… fuck… if that list had telekinesis on it’d feel about the same to me.

Yeah, read through this thinking that from my perspective, NTs have some talents I don't, but since they're common people think of them as baseline rather than talents. Shit sucks.

"Doing a little extra" so, working for free?

If this was in my break room Being high would be the first thing then under this one someone would write Fuck you, pay me.

"doing a little extra" They forgot to mention "unpaid"

Nice try management.

The list after I'm done with it:

Being on Tim

Making A fort

Being high

Having A Pos Attitude

Being ass ate

Using ood Language

Be a able

Do a Lit Ex

Be Pre red

Having A Strong ork hic

This list is practically impossible. I can be high or on time, but rarely both.

I found a good trick was to set your clock ahead an hour. That way you're only 30 minutes late.

All of these things are examples of skills that must be learned, not things that are innate, and particularly for neurodivergent folks.
