Despite putting in more effort than everybody on the planet combined, an autistic woman is still constantly ballsing up when it comes to socialising, it has been reported.
Paige Thomas, 26, spends hours a day faking conversations with herself before her work shifts – yet still struggles to interact with others without saying something like “good morrow”.
Thomas said: “I’m out here daily reciting everyday exchanges like a Shakespearean thespian, yet I still can’t get it right. People say I’m overthinking. But practice makes perfect, right?”
“My colleagues just wing it on the night and are fine. They don’t even have to rehearse. And yet I still flub my lines every damn time,” Thomas added.
Her employer Dexter Livingstone commented: “I just don’t think Paige is trying hard enough.”
