what career paths best suit autists?
>>
>>34200841
politicians, public speakers, tv hosts

>>34200845
I find you really funny.

I'm doing stuff with computers right now. However, I believe anything can work if you put your mind to it the right way.

>>34200841
Autists are beings of immense habit and repetition, of preparation and linear step-by-step efficiency, they are also have lone wolf syndrome, autists are essentially batman. But they’re batman if he was afraid of women kek. Still a batman though. Batman needs prep time to do anything and with enough prep time can do everything. Autists are the exact same.

So the best career path for autists would be any single career that is repetitive, involves long-term strategy, rewards initiative and management skills, rewards acting alone, and is centred around creating or maintaining systems without succumbing to change.

Suicide. Not spite toward you.
Simply my opinion.

There is no career like this. You forgot about prone to meltdowns and pressure/stress sensitivity.
>>
>>34200980
You forgot that I don't give a fuck and I don't follow authority from the Adolf Hitlers in this world.
>>
>>34200986
You asked a question and I answered it. So clearly you do give a fuck. Why are you asking questions then getting upset when you receive a response?
>>
>>34200980
>There is no career like this. You forgot about prone to meltdowns and pressure/stress sensitivity.

There is a career like this. And it’s a career that follows a fixed pattern, never changes, because either follows a calendar, follows the seasons, is long-term strategy, requires planning and organization, AND not only has zero risks for meltdown, but even counters it.

The career is horticulture, farming, farmhands, stablehands, animal work, working with nature. Instead of working with or for people, its for animals and mommy nature. And they follow fixed routines and require long term strategies and habits in order to get good at working with them.

Lmao. Have you ever actually worked in these industries? I have. Stress free. Are you speaking from experience or your removed interpretation of what you think goes on in agriculture?
>>
>>34200993
Because I don't give a fuck.
>>
>>34201012
Then you are irrational and make no sense. I didnt insult you nor do you have to agree. Dont ask questions if you only want the answers you deem acceptable. That means you already know the answer and are asking the question for no reason. This is not only irrational, but unbecoming of our (the autistic) race. You should see through this.

Judging by the other posts, it seems like the main problem with career advancement for autistic people is that they can’t handle stress well. If that’s true, then there is no good career path for autistic people.
>>
>>34201010
havent experienced it myself, noticed the pattern from succesful/content autists I know personally and relaying what I observe. Obviously these industries are not stress free. There exists no industry that is stress free, because life without stress does not exist.

Autists are x4 weak when it comes to stress regulation. However its a double edged sword because this critical high stress sensitivity lends itself to intense goal management to avoid stress where possible. They never avoid it because no one can, but because the autist thinks he can or might, the autist ends up being academically or career boosted. So paradoxically, the stress weakness becomes its own strength.

If this strength is applied to careers that lack having direct contact with humans, autists get big W

This has not been my experience, but i at least follow your reasoning and can see where this may have worked out for others. For the record, though, agriculture is a highly stressful field, so that answer perplexed me. As in, more stressful than office work a lot of the time. But I recognize youre basing it on what youve seen in others.
>>34201065
Yeah. I believe this

>For the record, though, agriculture is a highly stressful field, so that answer perplexed me. As in, more stressful than office work a lot of the time. But I recognize youre basing it on what youve seen in others.

I believe your experience. I am personally assuming that if I were an autist, I’d prefer agriculture to office work. Simply because I’ve seen the ways normies interact with autists, and from my PoV as an adhd, i’d wanna gouge out normies eyes. Because autists get unfairly shit on the minute they speak, everyone assumes the autist’s blunt honesty is somehow rude or bad or wrong or evil because 99% of people seem to be pussies who cant stop projecting their own insecurities onto anything an autist says. Idk how autists are able to handle it without wanting to crazy. So if i were an autist, id trust animals over humans any day
>>
>>34201125
I agree with all of that. This thread was a good example (not your replies).
But, yeah, animals are definitely easier to get along with. I get that. Ironically its the human element that makes animal husbandry stressful, not the animals. Deadlines, etc.
Thank you for being reasonable.
>>
>>34201145
No problem, and thanks for being an honest straight-talking and crystal clear linear man of reason and integrity. I humbly invite you to go and seek out an adhd female of my tribe and mating press her, so we can outbreed the fucking normies already. Have a good morning/noon/eve

From what I’ve read, agriculture as a career still requires human contact and relationships. It’s the kind of field where you have to communicate and get along with others because your farm depends on a few suppliers and only a few people that provide essential services in rural areas. You can’t be a loner or else no one will help you out.

Something without loud sounds. Probably book keeping, other corporate shit.

>>34200841
I tried plants and animals, real life is never the idealized version of things. Good luck keeping it together when the animal is being an autist itself and biting, or the plants give themselves up for no reason. Also outside weather will fuck produce then gg for your income.
What worked best so far is truck driving, on a fixed daily route. Little variety, mostly solitary work, stress free on good days (can be stressful sometimes), pay is shit though. I can't think up anything I'd rather do and is realistic for me currently.

For high skilled autist it could be an ace in a very specific but necessary stem field, or wfh tech drone. Math autists in banks, but banks are inherently neurotypical and jew centric careers. Office plus women is an autist nightmare.

These are probably the best options. They're jobs no-one wants to do, but necessary for society.

You'll never get used to the stench, but at least your costumers don't talk.

>>34200841
google clinical lab science, 2 year degree with a 4 year degree for better pay. you take samples of blood piss and shit etc that are collected by nurses and examine it with machines and microscopes. you'll need chemistry and biology but if you just study it's fine + the ability to work in a hospital lab. the worst part of the job will be dealing with nurses and retarded doctors over the phone, unfortunately there are no jobs without communication like this. your coworkers are all autists like you, the pay is decent with zero growth, enough to live anywhere in the US (don't know about elsewhere, heard it's shitty in canada), hospital insurance perks, and the option to work 10s and 12 hour shifts, which autists tend to love if you enter flow state and don't burn out. good luck broski

>>34211145
nta but I'm going for an MD next year, what do you find retarded about doctors in particular?
>>
>>34211204
Nta, but many are alright. Some are ridiculously snobbish and will treat fellow co-workers just fine, but absolutely lambaste nurses, technicians and "poor" patients.

Some are sexual pests and will leverage their status to bang struggling nurses. Of course, they'll just keep them hanging and move on from nurse to nurse.

You see these mostly in G.P's. In specialties people are actually more serious and well-adjusted.
>>
>>34211212
oh I see, I'm going to try for endocrinology so I feel I'll be dealing with labs a lot
>>
>>34211215
It's a fine field. Like you said - a lot of lab work. But expect to sign a lot of malpractice waivers and patient referrals. There's also a lot of resistance because most endocrino-diseases are "invisible". So, lots of non-compliance.
>>
>>34211231
what specialty as a MD is in your opinion the most chill ?
im just tryna have a good life and dont worry too much about work
>>
>>34211240
Clinical psychiatry (Not hospital), dermatology and ophthalmology. The first you just listen and maybe prescribe something then send them on their merry way for the next 2-6 months.

The last two are highly predictable and easily manageable/solvable conditions. If going for eye surgeon, you really need fine and feather-like movements. Otherwise just go to orthopedics.

These are fields that you bop 'n' go. Don't have to constantly deal with patients. Just baddabing, baddaboom. Hospital psychiatry is hell, avoid that like a plague. Pediatrics would be fine, but sometimes you have to deal with annoying parents and abused kids. So it's a heavy emotional toll.

Forget about those internet salary estimations - all these figures are not accurate. It's highly variable.
>>
>>34211250
Are autists any good at psychology though? Psychiatry I can definitely see autists being good at but clinical psychology would require a lot of social intuition that autists typically struggle with.

I do decent in accounting as an autist

You won't be making partner at a big 4 firm which sucks cuz those guys pull in over a million a year, cuz promotions at big firms are all about networking and sales

But you can get a comfy job doing internal accounting at just about any company that comes with a decent level of salary/job security

Nigga don't go killing yourself. If you're an autist you need to stay. I do not want to share a world with only normies, I'd rather watch paint dry. At least autists have depth bro, don't let that go to waste.

I'm prepared don't worry, all of med school is unpaid, the pgy1-3 are only like 76,000 py, then endo spikes up to like 300,000-400,000 realistically. it's really not that much in the scheme of it

in terms of clin psych, I did my honours in psych and while I did ok I've come to conclusion that it would be too taxing on me to pursue a career in it.
