Yes LOL I'm even driving myself crazy at work as I think others have horrible memory and can not recall anything. I remember what was said in every meeting I have attended and I feel horrible upset if I need to explain something to others. My boss seems to be bit afraid of my memory. I'm definitely driving family nuts with this "gifted thing".
Oli - When I look back at my work history through my new 'Gifted Perspective' I just laugh and laugh at all the errors I made of the kind you describe. I've even offered to write an Internal Wiki for our workplace, because I hate it when this happens:
Me: Which do we do first A, or B?
Boss: We always A before we B here.
1 Month later:
Boss: Hey, someone said you are doing A before B, We always B before we A here.
Me: OK, I'll do B before A from now on.
Never mind that in all the years she been bossing, no one has ever asked that question before, or cares what the answer is except me. Boss have been very sweet with me overall, so I've been working on 'deep breathing' through my anxiety over this sort of thing.
The main thing is that this no longer suprizes me and throws me into turmoil about 'am I remembering wrong?' and 'I didn't mean to do it wrong...why can't I do it right?'
Now I was: 'Yes, this is part of being humans, and this is completely to be expected, and if I ask DH, he will report that I do it too!'
Smiles,
