I work in food service, I never smile or make eye contact, and my manager's don't even care enough to notice. Once in a while they joke about my lack of smiling, but other than that they do not care. I guess I'm lucky.
Yea, I got away with it at night with the young managers, but not in the morning when the owner and main manager is there. The main manager always hugs and kisses me, and tells me to smile and stand up straight. lol She's not said that to much lately as I got tired of being told so I just did what I was told until she isn't around.

That is why I work in Casual Dining, same sensory overload, but pays better. For some reason, maybe it is the placid decorations that keep me at Cracker Barrel without freaking out too much.


I used to work at cracker barrel. I was a bus boy/dishwasher. It wasn't that bad.

The head manager cares greatly but she never watches us out in concessions. I guess I'm lucky.

I worked in a pizzaria for about 15 months, it paid but mostly sucked. I didn't relate to the other employees well, and had countless meltdowns during dinner hour when it was really busy. I had a few meltdowns there where I don't even know what caused it, but the job was way too stressful. I had to quit because it was starting to get in the way of school, which was the best thing I've done in recent memory. I was unemployed for a few months, then I landed a January-May temp job that is very Aspie-friendly. Next week I have to go job-hunting, and will be avoiding anything related to food.
