Working at a supermarket?

Where would you class success?

In your personal opinions

Not being told "You're fired" by the end of your shift.

If by "celebrate" you mean giving a short prayer of thanks, then yes.

Celebrating small wins which help to boost self-confidence and can be put to use toward future successes.

It would be being a 6 figure earning college degree holding employee of a oil and gas company that has good health insurance and benefits and retires with millions after 40 years or so at the age of 65 or 67 for me if i was a employee.But really I would be happy if i could be a everyday mult-millionaire as a white collar college degree holding office worker making a more median wage.

I would say the same as making more than above average salary. Anyone who makes 1/3rd or more above average is doing well in my opinion both NT or aspie.

I noticed that work seems to be very hit and miss for aspies. Some can make crazy stupid salaries while others can't even leave the house.

Having landed a job that’s not below minimum wage, doesn’t require weight loss, isn’t hard labor, and has penalty rates, plus a union? If you don’t need antibiotics after being at work then your good.

@Nades

Mean average annual pay in GBP London £41,017.00

So anyone making £41k or more?

Yes I would say so. It's a sign an aspie is holding their own with the NT's.
