And I have to think about something I want to say
That's your problem, just let it flooow


If I don't then there's a high chance I say something completely R.
Like yesterday, when I told two of my coworkers that they missed their lunch break.
And for some reason I said that the lunch break had gone home instead of it just being over.

I noticed they didn't really paid much attention to me after I told them they missed the lunch break because they were in the middle of a discussion.
I walked away just as I realized what I just said and immediately started face-palming myself.

Unfortunately, as I was subtly face-palming myself, the really cute coworker who I've worked with this week was apparently just behind me.
God I'm so clumsy.

Be yourself.


At my previous job I was this goofball who always made these shitty jokes.
It felt so good to just let go of my internal chains and just say something that popped up in my head.

The thing is, it was easy there because pretty much everyone was a goofball to a varying degree.
It didn't matter much because I wasn't the only one who said weird things sometimes.

I'm too afraid to reveal the real goofball me in this place because well, I've worked here for almost two years now and at this point I'm pretty sure I'm universally known as that really quiet guy who don't say much most of the time.

I can't predict what the others would think of me if I suddenly made a 180 with my personality.

A lot of the time I learned people will talk to you if you just open up.

Also since I have autism (high-functioning) I have had to learn social skills.

Theres a lot of good social skills you can pick up from self-improvement channels on youtube.


Yeah I've noticed they do that but the problem is that I pretty much need someone to start the conversation with me.
I usually hesitate too much to do it myself, as I tend to think that they are probably too busy for a chat and I would just bother them if I began talking with them.

I'm fucking terrible at small talk, but there are some topics I can go on forever about so I try to lead the convo there if I feel dead air coming.


Most of my colleagues aren't interested in videogames and movies like I am though.

I've noticed about myself is that when I really get into talking with someone about something, my words tends to slur together and get out in wrong order.

When I catch myself doing this I have to pause for a bit and quickly restructure what I just said so he or she can easily understand what I was trying to say.

There's only like four people in my life that this never happens with though.
