I may use terms that are part of my theory of "Functional Cognitive Typology". Diagnosis is always a mixed bag but generally they map to the cognitive type when in dysfunction:
C = Cultural (NT), EC = Extra-Cultural (ASD)
U = understanding ~ ADD/ADHD
A = acceptance ~ baseline, normal
T = trust ~ possible schizotypal disorder
R = respect ~ NPD
C = cerebral (adrenaline averse), S = somatic (adrenaline seeking)

I am ECUC/S (cusp cerebral/somatic)

Thanks again everyone! :D

Background checks take about 1-2 weeks to be fully processed, so maybe after when I get a call from my new boss is when I will tell my unhinged mom.

You don't have to tell her anything.

The first of the work training got bumped by thirty minutes because my boss was running late.

However, we managed to get through it without any problems.

The next part will be this Tuesday at 11 AM.

(And no, my mom still does not know I have a job.)

I’m so glad the training went well.

I wouldn’t tell my mother either were I in your shoes.

Hello again everyone!

Because of the coronavirus and because of my boss and his wife having a second child, my work training has been put on hold until late September or early October.

How disappointing! Hang in there. At least you don’t have to tell your mother yet. :) :D

I also forgot to mention that another reason as to why my training has been postponed to late September/early October is because of slow business.

My first training session will be tomorrow at 2 PM! :)

More applicants are applying because the holidays are on the horizon and more employees are needed.
