I’m curious to see the types of jobs and work fields that us audhders thrive in since a lot of jobs usually just end up burning us out.
Anyone found a way to make a steady income and not hate the job?
I feel like 90% of the comments here are going to be IT related.
Less because of Autism/ADHD, more just because this is Lemmy and 99% of users here are just hardcore Linux nerds.
Also IT.
I’m unbelievably offended that you would assume I do IT. I’m an EE.
But yes I’ve done IT.

Switching it up between programmer, team lead, architect, frontend, backend, systems, fullstack, etc every few years. Think I have used close to every single programming language in the world to some extent.
The field has got enough variation for the ADHD and enough cool systems and puzzles for the Autism.

Unemployed geologist. Unemployed by choice because instead of taking a job that would murder me I’m waiting for one that I know works with my limitations to open again. The jobs I take are usually project-based and start in the summer.
I am not the only ND person in the office and it’s quite refreshing.
Lawyer. Self employed. Subject matter is challenging and constantly changing.
I’m so envious! My job is ending in a few years and I am going to do law school. I can’t wait.
