  • People don't dislike those with autism or aspergers, they just don't understand it. You feel the same way about them that they do you. They try to understand and get flustered. They try again and again, but it's hard for you to explain your feelings. It's a different face of thesame coin. They don't understand your feelings, you don't understand their logic. It's not fair that they would fire you over this, and if you can you should take legal action, but you should be vague in expressing any concerns they may have with you when you work for anyone. Don't tell people why they may not want to hire you, you know what I mean? Of course, sometimes you have tell people things, but you should be vague to those who haven't earned your trust.

    • Well since at least 98% of the population is literate, there's no reason for them not to understand. I have a friend who's dyslexic, and she's able to understand. I know another guy who's legally blind, but he still knows how to read braille. He understands completely. I tell them exactly how I'm feeling. What's there not to understand?

      And just FYI, the employment laws where I live are toothless. This is a right-to-work state which is exactly why I'm not gonna die here. I don't tell people right away because they then start comparing me the Sandy Hook and UCSB shooters.

      That's why I now return the favors. For instance, when a black guy did that once, I told him he's not like every other black man I know in the hood. He doesn't wear his pants below his waste like he just shit himself or act like a thug and speak Ebonics, nor is he a deadbeat dad with three illegitimate children none of whom for which he pays child support, and he doesn't belong in a gang and have a criminal record a mile long. I was making a point and showing him how it feels.
