RE: Get Paid to Rant #16! All Rants Win! Plus 5 SBD Grand Prize!

in #contest7 years ago

Last summer, I went through a process that I thought would help me look for a job. Like help me pick the right job for me. I had to see a councilor first but didn't know. I have autism, so I thought this process would help you pick the right job for someone with autism, depending on where you fall in the spectrum. I had papers about my condition that I gave to the councilor, that women. HAD THE FREAKING AUDAICTY to tell me to my damn face that I wasn't autistic because of how I talk. WHAT KINDA SH*T IS THAT?! That was a slap in my face that all my struggles with autism was nothing. When I tried to tell the women the setting I require on a job or a job that I feel would not be wise. She refused to listen. If a FREAKING DISABILITY COUNCILOR doesn't know zip about autism that is just said. Autism has NOTHING to do with how you talk. I now can't stand this women and I wanted nothing to do with her the rest of the meeting. I couldn't request another councilor, I don't know why, but my mom said that they won't give me another councilor, so I was stuck with that bain of my existence. It pissed me off to tell someone they don't have something because they may have it differently than someone else. With any illness, disability what ever, not everyone is going to have it the same. Its disappointing that a person like that didn't realize that. Well my rant is over. But people who tell you you don't have something because you have it differently loses my respect.
