If you care to leave a comment, please state which poll answers here apply to you, and also mention if you like/don't like your job. Please mention if your personal experience deviates greatly from what is commonly recommended (ex: you work in a commonly recommended job and it's a really bad fit or you work in a job that isn't commonly recommended and it's a really good fit). You don't have to get specific with your location or line of work.

Mine is absolutely recommended for autistics. It's the kind of work they recommend anyone with problems do because they assume people with disabilities can't do anything else. So yes, recommended by both online and elsewhere.
I don't mind the job, honestly. I've had far worse, even those recommended for autistics - recommending an autistic work in fast food is a ludicrous thing to say. I find it difficult even being in a fast food joint, let alone work in one.
