I've had long periods of unemployment (3 years was my longest), went to college twice (Graphic Design when I was 18 and Computer Science in my late 20s), over twenty jobs (kitchen porter, retail, tech support, IC design, chef, delivery driver, R&D QA, installation engineer, software dev, web dev, and now software tester), have been made redundant 6 times and walked out of numerous jobs. Oh, and no degree for me either - every time I got a uni place I got a job instead.
Having been diagnosed this January, I finally know why I have such a chequered employment history
