Yes, being busy is an excellent excuse to behave a bit like an Aspie, even if you're neurotypical. Aspies (and introverts in general) thrive in environments where people are evaluated more on the basis of getting shit done quickly and accurately, and less on the basis of how often they drink with their boss.
