My overcompensating thing is that I *hate* being interrupted and usually refuse to chat or joke with coworkers in my office so I don't appear to be slacking (my actual teammates are mostly not in the same office). I also often work like 9 hours, because I know I lost an hour of that to distractions or whatever and I don't feel comfortable charging the company for that hour, so I charge 8.

I am fully aware that neurotypical folks occasionally pause during their paid hours to chat and sometimes round up on their timesheets, but I feel like I have to be above reproach and fully confident in my own work.

I have three digital to do lists at work, just so I can feel comfortable I’m not going to let stuff fall through the cracks. Just today I decided to try a new organisation app for work. I feel the need to keep looking for the perfect organisational tool that will help me work like everyone else. So yeah I guess this resonates!
