An autistic woman trying to avoid taking credit for her colleagues’ work reportedly also doesn’t want to take credit for her own work, for some reason.
Miya Wilkes, 34, insists on being conscientious about giving everyone their dues – except for herself, because everything she does is garbage and anyone could do it, if you think about it.
Wilkes commented: “Well done team on a successful pitch! Thank you so much to Ryan, who showed up basically on time and was so helpful in opening the door for me to carry through the projector and monitor.”
“We couldn’t have done it without Emma, who did a fantastic job pouring the water and making everyone so comfortable,” continued Wilkes. “I think that’s what sealed the account for us.”
“Me? No no, I just wrote, formatted and delivered the presentation. And I paused once to clear my throat. Thank God Emma was there to save the day with that water.”
Wilkes was last seen scrupulously updating her CV to remove all her achievements.
