I get very tired at the end of my work day after spending all day with people. I don't feel like I have many sensory problems

Can relate to both for sure. Trying to keep it together with people all around you that you’d rather not be around certainly takes it out of you, I’d sometimes only do a 6 hour shift and have to come home for a nap or sometimes it would take me several hours to switch over mentally from work to home mode. Also with the sensory problems that can include people, how they maybe speak when you’d rather silence, their energy levels may be almost hyperactive compared to yours, they may also move around a lot too which I know played havoc with my senses. 

I could never understand why I got so tired, I used to drive coaches in a past life, the afternoons were hell, 50 school children all talking at once, it was a sensory nightmare. I would bite the inside of my mouth to try and stay awake. Thankfully I now work alone.
