Hi all,
Non ASD people seem to struggle with my abruptness and straightforwardness in my emails. I’m told they come across as aggressive and cold and can be upsetting. I don’t see it that way at all no matter how many times I read and rewrite. It also causes issues in my professional life too. I'm thinking of adding an email disclaimer saying I’ve ASD and to make allowances and responses should be short and sweet.
has anyone else done this? Is it a good idea? Or am I just opening myself to hassle?
thanks x
Might be something that I need to do
I have many times had supervisors and higher management call me in a rage, when I meant no insult or to be so blunt about something.
It's annoying as in my head it's perfectly polite and concise, but to the bosses it appears rude and rambling.
