I love using sarcasm, but I do have a problem identifying it in others.
Its much more noticable on tv, as they exaggerate it greatly. Unfortunately in real life I can only guess. My NT partner is very sarcastic, and I have become more adept at 'guessing' what she means, and she has got better at ;etting me know, but I still spend quite a bit of time pretending to understand while I quietly debate whether she is being funny, or if I am in trouble again form something.
At work I tend to try to be more of the office clown, or entertainer. This is a good way of controlling situations for me, and allowing me to 'laugh off' amyting I do not understand. Other times I just have to put in my headphones and filter all of it out.
If only there was a manual in offices for AS and NT people covering conversation, conflict management and meetings. Life would be a much simpler place!
How do other people deal with sarcasm in a work environment?
