    Can you be alcohol-intolerant?

    I feel fine after drinking alcohol like I had five 4.5% beers yesterday at the after work beers the company owner got us because it was my last day and I didn't feel drunk at all. p.s I don't drive yet so Dad picked me up as he's working from home because of the ongoing Delta outbreak in Auckland.

    An update on what's been happening

    Yeah if it's a particularly hot and dry summer in New Zealand like the summer of 2019-2020 I was very careful doing any work on the section because of the risk with long, dry grass but this summer is predicted to be dry and hot for the South Island and warm and wet for the North Island(the...

    An update on what's been happening

    The shocking thing is the vacant lot is in a suburban area at the end of a right of way that the family house and the neighbor's house is on. Still the neighbors are chill with what I do in that section and the reason I'm seriously considering purchasing a wood chipper is because there's piles...

    This really disgusts me

    Yeah that's true but if other employees who are not so open-minded see I have High-Functioning Autism and start making awful comments I don't know how I'd deal with it especially if Human Resources takes no interest/doesn't care.

    This really disgusts me

    This is what I'd struggle with doing a job if I can even find a company in New Zealand that'll employ me because not a lot of companies employ/want to employ autistic people.
