| I know you got this from autism.com, but many of these jobs are low paying. In this day and age it just doesn't make any fiscal sense unless you're on disability and can only work a low wage job or are just not verbal enough for a fast paced sales job. For those of us who are verbal and do not want ... |

| I swear to God I could have written this. This is exactly what I go through. We do not spend enough time talking about environments which is more important than the job. For me, it's more about the environment and management style of the workplace than the actual job. I've done a lot of admin jobs, ... |

I have been looking primarily for information about work issues since for me, staying on a job has always been a problem as I quit often. You know how it is: difficult managers, annoying coworke... |

| "TEACHER: I believe most aspies should become teacher barring those who are average I.Q. because while NTs with average I.Q. can and do become teachers and even become "researchers" because of their faking ability, we aspies have to be of at least slightly above intelligence to have such jobs.

| I'd say I laugh a lot for an aspie. Maybe it's because I read a lot of comic books, watched a LOT of TV with laugh tracks and music video growing up in the 70s and 80s.
