The places I've applied to like that I've been at my job for eight years. I've only really quit one job out of nowhere; I walked out one night having a schizophrenic episode and never came back. I was laid off from one job, and I quit the other to move here.

It's definitely a good thing to have.
I think that my resume reflects my personality which at least means they know what they are getting into

What kind of job are you thinking of next?

Honestly, I'm really hoping I can do something on my own. I want to do a little craft market with my crochet , although I really doubt that I can make that be enough to live off.

I might see if I can find some work in a yarn shop too. That would be cool :smile:

And I like my little hyper fixations and I've always hoped that I can make one of them viable. I am so much better at working at my own pace, own start times and without any responsibilities beyond my own ass (ie, if I can't make a business run then I'm the one who goes broke, not getting yelled at by a manager for being late or calling in sick).

I've read a bit about what tends to work for autism and ADHD and it seems to be novelty for ADHD and routine for autism. It's funny, coz it's opposite and I have both conditions but it's so true, one minute I want routine and the next novelty. The truth is I can't really get that kind of on off dynamic in any salaried job.

So I'm not really sure.

I know from experience that for me, changing my situation and reflecting on my needs is a lot better than pushing through something that causes me stress

I'm resilient but I'm not persistent. That's the best description I have for me.

I think I'll do door dash for the interim. I know it pays crap but fuck man, I've been so used to $36,000 pre tax income years that I know how to leave cheap. If I can pay for my rent and my food and my petrol I'm good.

Kinda sucky tho coz now I wanna date but I don't really like dating when I need to explain to people the really deep personal reasons why I don't "have a normal job like the rest". I know I look lazy but in fact I'm actually just kinda unwell lol

Its generally understood these days that exploring your options and potentially taking a new job every 5-10 years is a good way to avoid wage stagnation typically associated with pursuing a single, long term position.

In my professional career, the maximum time I've ever spent at a single company is about 6 years, and I've never been questioned about it in interviews, beyond the typical "what motivates you to look for another job right now?"

In a world where pensions no longer exist, benefits packages continue to shrivel, and prior experience is almost always required (aka the employer is transferring the investment in training to the prior employer), its a natural consequence that the employee wouldn't bother to stay loyal to a single company, as they are no longer being "taken care of" like our parents and grandparents experienced when they found a nice job with a good company back in the day.

Technically this one could go under the unbridled negativity thread so I'm gonna give it a spoiler for all of the truly squeamish people out there. UO
almost everyone is blasting their house out with twice as many shit particles as they need to. By closing the toilet lid before flushing reduce the spread of particles from that bowl by about half.
Hopefully that helps somebody.

I've never closed my toilet lid in my life. It's good for us to not live in a sterile environment. I drink tap water and eat expired food too. Share joints with the occasional homeless person for good measure.

I never get sick!

The bathroom is shared between me and the other bedroom in the space I rent.
It is utterly required here. It was funny too when I told them what I just told you. I've never seen the toilet not closed every time I go in there now. Which means it was an issue for them too. Haven't had any smell issues since.
:lolsy:

I've got the old school nice job with nice company where people stay for decades. I've been there 13 years and they've paid for loads education and bumped my pay to keep me above industry standard always. It can be hard to find good jobs around where I live as well, so I find myself grateful.

My job hired me because they liked me from my clinical rotation when I was working for free. All other places I applied to sent me a generic email turning me down and that they've "chosen someone who better fits the role." I would be unemployed if it wasn't for the company I work for now.

There's people who have worked here more than 10 years. But the health and dental benefits are pretty good. And the people aren't dicks.
