If only there were more businesses out there both large and small that hired any/all people on the entire spectrum not merely tech companies hiring Aspergers to do software testing or corporations hiring low functioning autistic to do janitorial work.I know quite well that autistic persons can do a multitude of different things in various fields however, the workplace has not been privy to this knowledge or they act intentionally ignorant of such. Either I hope to not continue on a path of dismalness making me feel as if I'm a prime candidate for passive-aggressiveness. Well, I've spoken my peace.

It's a question, that I don't feel is easy for me to answer but, regardless I shall in a sincere & straightforward manner. I'm very good with computers though, I'm not a software developer nor computer or anything comprehensive of that nature. Rather, I'm good with being able to put a computer system together given access to parts and time to do such. However to have a career in said field one must now have not only certification but, a tier 3 degree in computer science. Many years back I had taken a course to become such a person yet, I failed the certification exam though, through no fault of my own rather, due to the fact there were questions that were not covered in the classroom nor in the book itself at all.

I was not the only one in this course that had come across this major discrepancy however, the course director/test administrator refused to make any accommodations even on a minute level.

Therefore, these days, I've found myself simply wandering from dead end job to dead end job hoping that I'll become very good at when in fact, I have absolutely no fascination or fondness of the field nor work that I do. Honestly, I wish there was companies out there that would actively hire autistic persons for a multitude of positions and use all of those persons abilities 110% not just place someone or pigeonhole someone into a specific career and that is it and nothing more attitude by some companies and people.

My girlfriend wanted me to set my alarm so she could get up early & I couldn't fall back asleep after turning off my alarm. We got a notice in the mail today from property management that their doing a bug inspection tomorrow so I would be waking up early two days in a row.

It sounds like you were really let down on that exam; it is horrible to think that a discrepancy like that could have such an effect on your life and happiness. I read in some of your other posts that you've applied for jobs with personality tests. That is very strange, I've not come across that in the UK. I would be very interested to know what types of questions they ask you. Could you fake the answers (i.e. to make yourself sound more sociable) in order to get to the interview stage? I hope you find a position where your skills and intelligence are appreciated and utilised, I'm sure there must be some companies out their who can see the potential in you :).
