    Let's call it neurodiversity so no one is offended by the word.
    I saw were my intelligence was relative to my coworkers, better then some, but I was wowed by the super skill of a few. Mostly very wide band areas of knowledge and very deep in where they were used. My company had a science center with 40+ PHDs, only worked with one of them that had ultra injection of idea, an ME. Same with the ones at university, or brought in as specialist, you can see the ones with real aptitude for their art. Always amazed at how inept someone from MIT or Stanford was with a MSEE, and were totally useless, but spent months trying to measure why the box was being upset by test injection instead of putting a feed through capacitor to ground to kill the noise. The technician working with him had to wait until his wife got sick with the flu, and it got fixed. And that lab time was with Union IBEW technicians, and a sorta side company with in the company, Environmental Effects Engineering Labs, whole different vice president arm of the company that hid the profits, by all of our internal research costs. That 2 months of testing with zero results cost $2.5mill. But the boss would not listen to me, as he was a kid up and coming. I was out of there within the 85 point exact count retirement date. And mental health and drinking problem are no more.
