Did you ever run into a boss who sort of liked to sort of tease you(Bust your chops as they say). Deep down they like you and you know they are only joking but it just happens because your Aspie quirks stick out like a sore thumb and you have a tendency to take things literally more so than NTs.

The manager at this office where I worked for two years.
She was always teasing me in this very passive-aggressive way.
It was really annoying.

Often I can't tell the difference between "fun teasing" and "genuine insult". To me, they're the same.

After all, I wouldn't call someone a Jerk if they weren't one! :?
