An autistic woman has been distraught to discover that the best version of herself only exists within a life-simulation video game, it has been announced.
Sarah Harrow, 24, from Nantwich, boasts to prospective employers that she owns three properties, five Birthday Hot Tubs and has already maxed out several careers – including Space Cadet and Celebrity Chef.
HR manager Ryan Wilkins, 37, said: “I did think it was a little odd that her degree was from the University of Britechester.”
“I said, is that a Russell Group? Then she told me it took her a mere day and a half to complete, so I was completely blown away,” Wilkins continued. “That’s some dedication! She’s got some exaggerated mannerisms and occasionally breaks into spontaneous dancing, but I took that as a sure sign of enthusiasm.”
“When I asked what she did for fun, Sarah said she lured her ex-boyfriend Steve into the family swimming pool and cheerfully removed the ladder,” Wilkins added: “That raised a few questions. Other than that, she’s bang on what we’re looking for.”
Harrow commented: “In reality I’m struggling to hold down my part-time admin job because I’m terrified of answering the phone – but nobody else needs to know that. In Oasis Springs, I’m a social butterfly and Business Tycoon with nearly level nine Charisma.”
As she left the interview, Harrow could be observed merrily waving goodbye. “Sul-sul!”
