Over the summer while waiting for my mother at one of her apts I decided to take an iq test out of curiosity, one of those free online ones that seemed legit but who knows.

I got 144 or something? I think 145 was the cut off for genius? I remember being a point below the cut off.

Anyway. The point isn’t to brag, but to say that like you, i am almost certainly autistic (but mid 30s female who wasn’t a disruptive child so I can’t be!) and I’ve only held down minimum wage or close to it jobs my whole life. Despite having an education and being “smart” my personality pisses people off. Especially in “real” jobs.

I’m also constantly called a know it all derisively but I’m sorry when I was a kid I was left alone and none of the other kids played with me so I read encyclopedias (and later Wikipedia) for fun.
