I think I'm number dyslexic.

If there is such a thing. For whatever reason I keep reading numbers aloud in the wrong order. 486 becomes 846 all the time. I often skip the first number and start with the second. This only happens when I'm reading aloud.

I can't read out loud for shit. It doesn't matter if its numbers or words, I screw it up. Maybe my brain and my mouth aren't fully connected?

Anyways, I just have to slow down. If I make an effort to slow down, I do a lot better.

I do this all the time with phone numbers. People will tell me their adsl number over the phone and I'll register the 4 digits at the end first then the exchange part after. Customers probably think I'm weird when I have to get them to repeat only the first 3 but I have the 4 already. :p

I also can't remember numbers at all. Someone can tell me a phone number I have to write it down pretty much as they say it or I'll forget. I would of hoped I get better at this being on this job for almost 2 years now but nope lol.
