Do you get angry? I get angry. A "friend" of mine is making me angry today. If you get angry then this is the thread to let off steam. All those irritating NT's winding you up. You'd like to bury them in a shallow grave wouldn't you? *Hold on there is someone at the door**Sound of man being dragged away by White Coated individuals*
As an amateur woodworker (it’s a hobby, not an occupation or qualification of mine) I make things for people.
Amateur status and being autistic don’t often mix well for me.
As a beginner, I am prone to making a lot of mistakes, as an autistic person, I spot every single one. No matter how small and ‘unnoticeable’ they are. It can be frustrating at times.
I was making some wooden handles for a project I’ve been working on recently and one was slightly out of line. Someone might argue that it’s barely noticeable, someone might justify it as character, but for me it’s neither. I have put them in the scrap bin and will start again when I’m in a better frame of mind.
