I can pick up people's expressions and emotions quickly. This can be bad though when it's a negative emotion because it's not like I am insulting someone or anything like that, so usually there isn't anything I can do, but let their negative emotion pass and get a little anxious about it.
Yes I feel people's energy in a very big way. DH, DS, DD and I talk about it and they are not the same. It's often really uncomfortable
I’ll pick up a facial expression or body language after DH says something that he will have no clue about. I only really mention it to him if it’s important.
I’m really good at understanding/reading people’s motives. Why they do what they do, or why they treat people a certain way.
I’m also good at finding errors. If something doesn’t balance for example.
I can also throw a frisbee like nobody’s business. Our German Shepard lives and breathes for his frisbee, I can get it between two trees, under branches, and I can judge exactly where it needs to be for him to catch while he’s running.
There are a couple of things mentioned in here that I think I'm good at. However, I'm always worried about the Dunning Kruger effect so I'm not going to mention anything. lol.
My coworkers reminded me that I can read an interviewee in less than a minute and am correct.
Course they just asked me to be on another panel, LOL.
Ooh, I’m good at this too. We’ve been in interviewing hell this past year, and every time one of the interviews I do gets to the second round with my boss, he’s always like, I could just skip these and make a decision based off your impressions.
Guessing the time. Like if I am out somewhere and not paying attention to what time it is, my guess is pretty close to the actual time once I check. This skill has become less useful now than everyone has their phone on them all the time.
Also travel planning. I don't think it's that hard with so much info available on the internet, but it's something that takes some practice and I know some people find overwhelming. I think our trips have been pretty good and my travel companions always say I am good at it!
I just wanted to quote myself and say that today I was in the pool with my family, and after we had been out there for a while I said something like "we have been out here for a while, it must be about 5:30" and my sister looked at her apple watch and said "how did you know! It is 5:30 exactly!"
I just thought that was funny after posting about it earlier in the day. Still got it!

I'm a very good counsellor and presenter of info about mental health stuff (despite having anxiety about presenting).
I'm great at packing or trying to fit things into spaces - I can see it w/o having to measure. Great spatial awareness, I guess.
I'm good in an emergency - I can detach from my emotions and just do, if need be. If it hadn't been for my needle phobia as a kid, I probably would have done work in emergency services/medicine. I've been present during medical emergencies and I can either help or direct for help w/o freaking out.
Lol, same! I had to repeat a pre employment drug test twice because my pee was so clear. Neither sample was accepted so they cut a chunk of hair instead. I’m just well hydrated!
I need ham like water Like breath, like rain I need ham like mercy From Heaven's gate Sometimes ham salad or casserole or ham that’s free range, all natural I need ham

Originally, I didn’t think that I had anything to contribute to this thread. Then I went to the farm today and remembered that I am awesome at shucking corn LOL Like, Iliterally shucked 24 ears of corn and bagged to them in the same amount of time it took a man to bag his 18 ears of corn unshucked. Weird flex but I’ll take it.

When I was a cit at the camp I’d attended for years they made us shuck corn for “service work.” That’ll learn ya real quick

I’m a super recognizer - my dad was too. It’s like facial recognition ability. I can spot extras and supporting actors in shows and place them from random other things - even if they were mere kids in the other things.

This is interesting, because younger me could rattle off a dozen things - writing, piano, flute, dance blah blah.
Older me? Hm. I'm a pretty effective teacher and communicator in a work/school setting. I have a green thumb. I'm a fantastic cook and baker. I'm great at organizing, as well as planning and packing for travel.
