Today, I took a call at work to the most lovley lesbian couple, and they are new to my area, so they were having a side convo about their chest nut tree. The main lady I spoke to said something like yea cause the nuts from chestnut trees are pecans, which created a record scratch moment in my arborist brain, so I very abruptly went. WHAT? which led to an entire convo about trees and how their crack pot neighbor said they couldn't eat the nuts from the tree which is not true which led to me telling them most trees that say don't eat the nut usually mean don't eat until they've gone through a toxic tannen removal process which led to me recommending them my favorite tree youtuber (justinthetrees if you were wondering) all this to say. I am not chatty at work. I don't like speaking with people. I don't know about anything, really. I don't even like my job. But I do like talking about trees maybe too much. And that is autistic masking in a.......nutshell 🤗
