I kind of forgot this was supposed to be about me being white dude, rather than just the "walking on eggshells" at work part, so it makes sense it makes no sense in that regard.
Ah gotcha. Yeah I certainly saw some early red flags. That makes me feel a little better! Must be something that really bugs you if that's what you focused on in the post. Hope you work through it or accept it as a personal trait. Good luck out there!
Sounds like a neurodivergent person having to mask when dealing with neurotypicals. Masking is a kind of walking on eggshells.
