Help!

[quote user="NAS15268"]

Ah, I need help guys. It's nothing bad, I'm just anxious. There's no reason for me to be anxious, I should be super excited...but my emotions are mixed.
Basically, for my work experience at school, I worked at Waterstones (the book shop.) I enjoyed it so much, and it's the only place I really to want to work at. So as I recently turned 16, I sent the mangaer an email explaining that I'm now 16 and asking if there are any available Saturday jobs or Christmas work. And to my joy, he replied and asked if I could go into the store on Saturday for a chat about it. When I got the email, I was so excited, I screamed and really couldn't believe it. But now I've started worrying about things, which my mum tells me are silly things to stress about. Do I tell him I have Aspergers? I don't want to lie to him, but maybe he will think I'm incapable (which I'm not)...Do I need to take a CV? He only said it was a "chat" not an interview, but what if he asks for one? I don't have a CV, and am pondering whether to make one? Half of me is really excited, but then half of me is worrying like crazy! 

HELLO LINDSAY, IF I MAY SUGGEST THE FOLLOWING AS SOMEONE WHO SERVED IN A BOOKSHOP FOR A DECADE AS AN ASPERGER'S BUT NOT KNOWN AT TIME..  ALL THE INTERVIEWER REQUIRES IS YOUR ENTHUSIASM FOR BOOKS AND WHETHER YOU CAN HANDLE THE PUBLIC. I WAS ON THE INFO DESK AS I HAD THE A GOOD MEMORY FOR STOCK - WHAT I AM SAYING YOUR ASPERGER'S WILL BENEFIT YOU MORE THAN YOU REALISE. CV, have it done and present it only after you have warmed up and feel relaxed it will dispaly initiative,rigour and will go down well. As far as the Asperger's goes and not telling - i tell all those about me as i too do not like concealing things, i would not worry  about that at this stage. When you get the post and have proven yourself,and i am confident you will,  then do so-this is my view. please let us know how you did as i and many others will gladly assist wherepossible

all the best
