This reminds me of a story lol
When I was in high school there was this guy who was supposed to be dyslexic like me but unlike me he could not tell time on a normal clock. He could only tell time on digital one's. At this school the hall clocks were all digital. So he was one of these kids that think they are hot shit when really they are shit. So he thinks he has the right to get up mid class walk into the hall and walk a few classes down to see what time it is.
So of course when he gets back to class his ass in trouble. He yells and hollers how he was just checking the time and he ended up in the office.
I worked in detention and I was in the office to collect the new students. When I get there his mom is yelling at the principal saying HE WAS JUST CHECKING THE TIME! She was siding with her kid yelling at every one in the office for not making each class was not more dislexic friendly.
Yet he didn't even think to ask the teacher what time it was.
I've got a similar story haha. I too am dyslexic and my number one peev is when others use that as an excuse to get out of work. When I was in year 6 there was this girl who was also dyslexic (granted worse on the spectrum than me) but loved to exploit this to no end. We were in a group assignment together and while I was assigning everyone a job, I said her job would be to go collect coloured paper from the craft room (easiest job I could give her) and her response was "I can't, I'm dyslexic". I got so angry I just said "So am I but that doesn't stop me from picking up fucking paper". She did it but boy was she unhappy about actually doing work.
I never did that where I used my dyslexia as a reason not to do something. I have used it for the reason I misspelled or used bad grammar lol. But because of my dyslexia many times when I was in a group the group would tell me they didn't want me to do anything because my dyslexia would fuck it up. It made me so mad. I love to write and I remember when I was in Jr high we had to write a story for science where in the story we go to which planet we are assigned we had Saturn and we had to make it seem like it is real and not fiction so no aliens -.- well the group said I would fuck it up so they had a guy known for being a nerd do it and he made ME do the part of a bimbo -.- the guy was not a nerd he was a perv. I knew more sci-fi than him. MAN that made me so mad.
I haven't had an experience like that luckily, I'm sorry to hear that though. Some people think it means you're stupid and it's hard to explain how it actually impacts your brain.
