I’ve been in and out of so many different jobs. Usually I get to a point where I burn out and just can’t go in anymore. Best job I ever had was as a tour guide in a distillery telling people facts all day and working with what I now realise was a whole bunch of other neurodivergent people. Only left that because I wasn’t paid enough to live. Honestly could have stayed there forever otherwise. Such is life!

Currently in the middle of a career change after realising the whole 9-5 office job life isnt sustainable for me. I’m hoping to be able to work for myself soon and not be beholden to other people’s schedules!

What jobs have you tried out over the years? What has worked well for ye?

    I’m working my way towards being self employed too! I’m a little worried about managing my finances that way but hopefully it will be easier than being someone else’s employee which statistically has not worked out for me so far. I’ve quit 3 jobs for burnout/stress, almost quit a 4th only the pandemic came along and I was let go anyway. And a 5th I was fired from. So I’d be mad to try that all again!
