@@FerventLotus Why isn't 2 a prime number? Proof: The definition of a prime number is a positive integer that has exactly two distinct divisors. Since the divisors of 2 are 1 and 2, there are exactly two distinct divisors, so 2 is prime. Rebuttal: Because even numbers are composite, 2 is not a prime. Reply: That is true only for all even numbers greater than 2.
The flickering light would have got me and I would have insisted that they don't continue with the assessment until it was addressed. Then, I would have walked out because I would have thought the person doing the assessment was a mean wacko.
And as they are not medically trained to do this assessment they are leaving themselves open for malpractice and abuse of their position within the company
@@selwynowen6213 Also, some people who have epilepsy can have seizures triggered by flashing/blinking lights. In others, it can trigger severe headaches. I would have demanded that the light be turned off.
Surely once she had mentioned the flickering light was bothering her then that part of the test was over and to leave it on afterwards serves no purpose other than to intentionally torture her..
What made me nuts were the ones about how I come off to other people, which were most of them. Do I not know how other people feel? Take what they say too literally? Fail to “put myself in their shoes”? How would I know, or know whether it’s happening a little, moderately, or a lot? People don’t tell me this stuff! They just stop interacting with me! All the time! Am I passing… or failing… or whatever makes me autistic… this test yet?!? 😫
That one frustrated my partner too during their assessment (and me too). I mean one of the obvious signs of ASD is challenges understanding things through another's perspective, but yet the test is demanding the ASD person accurately assess themselves then extrapolate that information into how it affects the emotional status of a neurotypical person? My partner has trouble understanding their own emotions most of the time, how the heck are they supposed to know the emotional status of other people, let alone accurately assess how that NT person is viewing them?! Personally I would rather the question be an open eg: "describe a typical interaction with a peer." Then the assessor can be the ones to extrapolate the info from the info provided, and ask pertinent follow up questions.
I once, in like forth grade, had an exam with a guy who before each question would say, "This one is an ( easy one or hard one or medium one )". I asked him are you doing that to find out if it affects the outcome of the test? he puled a blank face and said " this is an easy one". I got it I was not a person only an object to him.
For the numbers 2 and 7, I'd have said: - I hate them both - When I was 2, I had a bad experience and same experience when I was 7. - I hate what happened to me 2 days ago and what happened 7 days ago. - I have a good feeling 2 good things will happen 7 hours from now. ...
but also, if the person being tested mentions the flickering light, that's a data point that no longer needs to be gathered and the light can be turned off.
People throw around "autism" like it is a catch all term for being awkward and that is ridiculous. Could it possibly be instead of you being autistic you are just difficult to get along with because of your personality?
Instead of throwing around baseless assumptions based solely on your frustration, could you possibly mind your own business and stop acting like you were some kind of autism professional?
Would have said they’re both prime numbers
I was gonna say they are both songle digits number
I would have said they were both numbers.
But that is wrong.

@@johno4521 Exactly. Crap like this is simply a D/s game being played to see how much management can push her around.
I'm not Autistic and I'd rather go to the library than anything where I'd have to people. I'm pretty done with peopling...
Same. Though I can see some autistic people going to a party if they knew a lot of their "safe" people were there.

Being autistic, I feel offended that these would be questions I might be asked.

2 and 7? Worst 2 cards to get in a hold `em poker game
Good answer
If that’s a test……..it’s pretty much poorly put together.
i thought that was veronica
They are both numbers im a tool
being an old stoner i would just have thought that the flickering light was a strobe light show and dug it.
😂🤣😂🤣
For the numbers 2 and 7, I'd have said:
- I hate them both
- When I was 2, I had a bad experience and same experience when I was 7.
- I hate what happened to me 2 days ago and what happened 7 days ago.
- I have a good feeling 2 good things will happen 7 hours from now.

It makes you wonder who’s in charge of the asylum 🤪
Seven/deuce is the crappiest starting hand in Texas hold-em. Sooo...they both suck.
I love you
Not everyone has autism that would drive anyone nuts the light i mean. wheres ur logic?
People with autism can be more sensitive to flickering, and may even notice a flicker where someone else is not even able to see it
but also, if the person being tested mentions the flickering light, that's a data point that no longer needs to be gathered and the light can be turned off.
I'm having huge questions right now!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I have eye problems
Turn it off!
Actually, 2 and 7 are prime numbers.
crazy people deciding if other people
are crazy.
Bingoooooooooo! They just want to see if your crazy outshines theirs.
valid points, but also, autism isn't crazy
2 and 7 are both prime was my first thought. Library.
What a load of nonsense 😂😂😂

@@htimsid there are too many people who use a mental condition as an excuse for their stupid decisions and terrible personalities.
