I have been in my current job for a year and at the time of interview, I declared that I had Crohn's Disease but as I hadn't yet been diagnosed with Aspergers Syndrome, I did not mention it.
I had a 'conversation' with my boss last week after I had a migraine and needed to call in sick and she said to me that she'd have appreciated being told this at the time of interview. I hadn't mentioned it as they hadn't been an issue for a few years but she also said that she may have reconsidered whether I was suitable for the job had I have mentioned it due to the need to take time off.
It made me think about what I should declare to any future employer if it will affect my chances off getting a job? A lot of people don't seem to fully understand Autism and how it varies so much in how it affects people and there's still a lot of stigma about it.
What would you suggest?
