My job is easy and I work in a warm office since September. My boss knows all about my issues and my aspergers. I was forced to do this job by my family and work programme.

However I am bored to tears with it because it is dull reptitive computer work and i really do feel fed up and depressed when I go there every day. I want to leave but if I did I would get no money from the job centre not to mention my parents and brother would give me a very hard time over it :(


My contract is due to expire towards end of April and they may or may not rehire me.


Please can i have some advice on this? I really am desperate:?

Stick with it, it's not forever. Think of it as a boring step on a ladder leading to more interesting things. You have a much better chance of getting something more interesting in the future if you successfully complete this job.

At least they know about your Aspergers. That can't be said for most Aspies who work.

I agree with Androbot on this.

Nothing is forever. Count on it.
