Since last thread about trouble with my career, Ive been written up twice. Late 3 times within month, and once for skipping a procedure. Completing the product was still attainable without the step, and since we were short handed I was anxious and forgot a new procedure, in which I attribute my forgetting being due to my propensity to deem tasks unnecessary when unneeded for final variables.

I dont want to make an excuse for the lates. But I was thinking more of a vague note, explaining I have aspergers and articulating why I have some difficulties. My hope is this would make them more empathetic to my mistakes.

When I spoke of advancement in the other thread, it's more like movement. I make decent wages but I want to move into an entirely different field within the corporation that is mathematically or technologically involved. My plan is to ask which what requirements are needed for the respective field and asset my dedication to acquiring a position there, no matter then education required.

basically my psyciatrist is willing to write a note awaring my workplace of my auism. I like the idea of this creating job security. I need suggestions on what details her note can include.

I would use what you already said, and include a generic description of autism and what kinds of accommodations the employer could make without hampering the company's productivity. Additionally how you concluded how the end result logically didn't need that extra step could be a benefit if the company is looking for more efficiency
