| Thanks for the responses. What if I were a shirt similar to this one - Click Here My mom has one similar to this. It's a little big, but it's the nicest thing I could find. I guess I'd have to tuck it into my pants though. Grr! Would this shirt be ok? If so, should I wear another shirt under it (in ... |

| I'm a female around 30 y/o and I can't find anything to wear for a potential job interview. Most of the job websites I've found give examples of what to wear, but I don't think any of those types of clothes will work for me. I'm applying for an entry level job as a vet assistant. I think wearing a l... |

| I'm applying for a job at a new company where I know the owner. I spoke to them a few months ago and they made it sound like they were interested in hiring me and that the whole application and interview process would be just a formality. They said they had actually mentioned to their spouse that I ... |

| In my excitement, determination, and obsession to get a particular job, I sent in the application form too early. I know about the job because I know the business owner. The job will be advertised on a particular website and that's when the application is supposed to be sent. I thought maybe I had m... |

| I've thought about this and I just can't ask a former teacher or a relative's friends. And I can't ask a relative to lie. If I was applying somewhere else, I would have no problems asking a relative to lie for me, and they would gladly do it. But at the place where I'm applying, I know the boss/owne... |

| But what is a teacher from 13 years ago going to say about me, if asked? That I was the shy, quiet, weird kid in class. I'm certain there's only one teacher who would remember me and they would remember me as being awkward. So if I did contact this teacher via Facebook, what would I say? Oddly, the ... |

I rarely see or talk to anyone outside of my family. The few non-related people I talk to are friends of ... |

| If I think I'm going to have problems at a new job (well I haven't gotten it yet), should I tell my boss I have AS and/or social anxiety disorder? I wouldn't want to get fired because the boss thinks I'm weird and can't handle the job. I also worry that I may have a panic attack everyday for the fir... |

| I usually walk slow. My mother often comments about how slow I walk. Sometimes when I'm walking by myself somewhere, I think I usually walk fast. I wonder what that means. |

| I don't like it when people try to help me, but some people make me angrier than others. I hate it when my father offers me help. It makes me feel like I'm not good enough. If my grandmother offers me help, I don't mind at all. I don't know why I feel like this. I think it has something to do with t... |

| I don't like wearing socks for various reasons, so I don't like wearing shoes that you have to wear socks with. I don't mind sports sandals and I LOVE wearing Crocs. I wear those all the time. I do prefer going barefoot, but sometimes I just can't. I don't like going barefoot someplace where the flo... |
