Quote:
His autism spectrum disorder is “obvious from how he communicates” and “evident” while he worked, the complaint states. It describes how it can cause him to have a difficult time controlling the volume of his voice and to “engage in what is known as self-stimulatory behavior, including rocking back and forth.”

If he became “agitated,” the complaint says it’s possible for him to raise his voice.

Yes, yelling at work is an issue, not necessarily a fireable issue, but an issue.

Actually, if someone shows themselves as decent even when angry, to me that shows good character.
