To quote two:
“If your workplace is dominated by extroverts who criticize those who prefer to work alone — or skip after-work cocktails — as “not team players,” it may inadvertently alienate gifted people.”
“there is no difference in conforming responses given to high- and low-pressure levels by introverts.”
It feels like they described #autistic me. Then again, I'm an #INFP ( / #Introvert) type of autistic, so it fits.
In addition, I experienced that “not team players” from some managers from a certain company years ago. I don't join after-work cocktails, or any party, and was branded as “not a team player” by some of those in position. I was actually very glad I did not because I later found out they force people to drink, and I can't because I have #gout (other than the fact, you can't make me drink if I don't want to).
Anyway. What about you, my fellow #ActuallyAutistics? Or, are you an extrovert autistic yet still find similarities from the article and studies mentioned in it?
I'm going to do a new #introductions post and leave it pinned on my page.
Howdy, everyone! ^_^ I'm the creator of the YA Slice-Of-Paranormal-Life #graphicnovel#webcomic Wapsi Square. I also draw SFW and NSFW paranormal themed pinups that I sell on Ebay.
I dabble in audio #fieldrecording#animation and #miniature building. My comic can best be described as a Slice-of-Paranormal-Life, and some of the big themes are to not judge books by their covers, and learning to deal with your own demons, and mental issues.
If you'd like to check out my comic, the whole archive is free to read here: http://wapsisquare.com/
