Professional background in Library Science. Unfortnately, great huge cutbacks in public-sector funding in the early 1990s meant a considerable downsizing in the field, and many jobs were lost. I made a sideways jump into the bookstore trade, even ran my own bookstore for a while. I now work in the Correspondence division of a local utility company, part of the department that responds to written customer inquiries (fax, postal mail, e-mail). It involves a certain amount of research and analysis at times, as well as being very organized. And at my most recent performance review, it was noted by my supervisor that I seem to have a knack for spotting things that are out of place or just don't fit right. This has been reported as one of the stengths an Aspie has... and I have never, ever mentioned the word Asperger's to anyone I know personally offline.
