They don't check those "tell us about" answers, but then they want a reference for an unrelated job I had when I was between jobs 10 years ago lmao. I appreciate your perspective. It often feels like everybody is doing fine all the time, and it's good to hear that I'm not the only one who just doesn't understand the point of this whole process.

I was deemed officially as not having full blown autism, but damn, can I relate.
