I am mildly colorblind but fortunately this does not impact my life too much. There are exceptions though :
- when I was maybe 12 the ophtalmologist told my father in from of me that I should forget about engineering and science in general. Take it dumbass, I am an engineer and PhD in physics (I had to let this out one day :))
- I was shopping for school supplies this morning and had to ask someone to help me choose the copy books so that they are of various colors and not pink. She was surprised at first but then we ended up with a nice talk.
- I reflashed a router 5 times as the flashing was failing, the LED was red. My brother was walking by and told me it is actually green, ending my agony. The router survived.
- a support guy flew cross country once to support my switches which were failing. As you can imagine they were not, I thought that the LEDs were red but they were green (maybe the ophthalmologist was right after all. Still a dumbass for saying this in front of a pre-teen geek who could have listened and go for liberal arts)
- my boss (a lady) told me that I wear interesting color combinations. I thought I was always wearing a combinaison of beige and pale blue. I was not.
