Once upon a time a younger woman I knew , whom did not, and still doesn’t understand about being a Aspie.
Even tough her traits were painfully obvious and is still undiagnosed . Her life was headed in the direction of not functioning well in society . I knew her family at a distance . But we had Halloween decor and set up hobby for entertainment in common. And she was at best seemed to be headed for a life as a stock clerk at best. When she was functional Then I said a few things to bolster her confidence ..And she went from serving sandwiches to low level security . Only cause her confidence was better At the same amusement park as the sandwich place ,operated in .
Then a opportunity came that she could get into a high level security job at the same place . The police dept. hire that level security away from their jobs. As police recruits..And the physical training for higher level security was grueling and much bookwork . And she was pretty sure , it was beyond her. But I told her she had nothing to lose.
And I started giving her supplements which greatly aided her in getting through the schooling and training.
Including Nootropics to boost her ability to digest info. Bought her security equipment for her new position .
She then got a side job working for a Halloween store , where she quickly made it to assistant manager . After I taught her to be able to solder wires in small electrical circuits , where she became invaluable to their company .
Because damaged or not working Halloween display and sales . She was the only person who could repair them .
During that training, I noticed, she was a autodidact, And called her attention to it .And she started taking on more and more responsibility. As the Assistant manager for most all the Halloween stores in 2 States . She refused manager position several times , as I had warned her about being put into a salaried position as opposed to a hourly position. She has now changed jobs once more . Got her Commercial drivers license, started at the Major metropolitan Airport driving buses, and within a month, she has been made night manager in charge of Airport transportation and operations
For the Airports bus services .
