I’ve been reading about in online articles about autism that some jobs are better than others for people with autism but in many cases, people do not have the relevant experience for these even if they can gain the relevant qualifications - for example, I’d only been allowed to be in supermarket jobs for 30 years in both Ireland and the U.K., a choice that was decided for me by others after leaving school and the only reason I stayed in retailing for so long, by people who believed in a firm discipline mindset long before my diagnosis in my particular case - this posed huge problems for me after my redundancy after 17 years in Sept 2019 and the reason why I was out of work for so long during Covid (even though I had some supermarket interviews just before Covid) as both during and after Covid the supermarkets would not touch me with a bargepole because of my long experience in junior roles, leading me to wonder all sorts - at age 52 now and although working in a hotel, I’m wondering how long it will last when and if the U.K. economy totally collapses
