@actuallyautistic what are everyone’s thoughts on signing cards (birthday, etc.) at work, where you do not really know the person, but there is an implied expectation that you do so

@filmfreak75 @actuallyautistic Write your name small "to leave room for others". You don't have to put a message. Make it illegible if it bothers you.
Most likely the recipient will get a kick out of all those names.

@fishidwardrobe @actuallyautistic my office is really big into kudoboard.com -- i’ve had to do 4-5 in the past 3 weeks -- all for people i do not really know or care to know

@filmfreak75 @actuallyautistic that does seem rather crappy

@fishidwardrobe @actuallyautistic it's one of those presumed niceties that neurotypicals assume everyone wants and you get judged for not taking part

@filmfreak75 @actuallyautistic yes. But if it takes a second and it makes you look like you fit in, that's cheap. You often don't even have to interact with anyone!

@fishidwardrobe @actuallyautistic true, but it still feels insincere

@filmfreak75 @actuallyautistic I find that very little about work -- or at least the social aspect of work -- is anything close to sincere.

I look at the signing thing as camouflage. I do the team lottery, too, and the sweepstake at Grand National time.

I draw the line at Secret Santa. ::shudder::
