I went to the bathroom at 10:11 to cry for a few minutes
Backstory is the autistic kid that I keep bashing (on the forum) was in the vestibule getting prepared for work, putting on his lab coat and he just suddenly broke down in tears and told me, "I don't think I should've come to work today." I put my hand on his shoulder and got closer to him and I told him, "why man, what's wrong." Then he told me his 26 year old cousin died in a motorcycle accident the day before. Then he started crying even more and I hugged him. Then I told him the team and I were all here for him and that he could even leave earlier if he wanted to. The girls we work with also joined in for a group hug and one of them said, "oh no, I want to cry now too."
I told him to take things at his own pace, he could go to the kitchen anytime he needed a break, and today would be 100% about him. He decided to put on some lo fi music to fit the vibe. At some point I caught him doing something that would have been deemed a violation (blowing his nose in a sanitary area) but I let it pass
He only stayed at work for 2 hours and then left
But yeah I had to go to the bathroom and cry. I just felt so bad dehumanizing people (especially autists) and calling them NPCs and stuff, when in point of fact they are human too just like me. Just like the 40 year old Jamaican woman told me on the weekend, "I hate people, but not humans."
I hadn't cried since last winter (at a time when I was trying to be something I wasn't, and someone looked me in the eyes and told me I was perfect the way I was and didn't have to try to be anything else, before that I hadn't cried in years), but in retrospect I realized I was just an object of lust and those words were meaningless. Still, it felt real at the moment
