The Puzzle of Me: My Life with ADHD, Autism, and a Search for Meaning

Thanks for sharing your thoughts i totally agree. I believe we're sort of the next step in evolution. ADHD i call often my super power since i can work on 4 screens parallel while my colleagues sometimes struggle with half a screen. Being different is nothing bad the contrary. The biggest struggles i face in job search are hiring managers that realize that i might take away their job if they'd hire me. dunno its just a feeling i can't really say for sure but i encountered it more than one time during interviews when they throw questions at you and you nail them all down with accuracy and you see the guy is struggling in front of his team. I month later i'm being declined as "overly qualified", not having enough "managerial experience" or whatever.

That feeling can be right we experience the same. They rather go for an idiot they can mould. You are not allowed to question and they are not used to someone saying "that's not of your business".

We hear the same: not enthusiastic, too enthousiadtic, overly wuslified you will be bored, and and and.. But there are a few who will be happy to have you. We all go for the solo jobs and work at night.
