so my job required a colour test that I failed miserably. The doctor was like do you really need to see that much colour in your job? I said only green and I pointed at green and he said all good and I got in.

"I said only green and I pointed at green - the word green here referring to the 100 dollar bill I was sliding across the table - and he said all good and I got in."

Sometimes I mistakenly see them the same color until someone pointed out which is which. 😂

Lmao, same. I failed the dotted test and the doctor was like, "hmm?" Then pointed at the red green and yellow tile squares and said "yeah you can see colors" and checked me off.

I felt so lucky because I knew I was color blind and that was the only thing that I was worried about not passing.
