you don’t have to describe them in detail with dates, not trying to get you to doxx yourself

but it’s kind of A Thing with neurodivergent folks to have tried a lot of different jobs, and I’m curious about everybody’s count

I think I’m up to 21 that I’ve filed taxes for, which doesn’t seem that extreme for 42, except when you consider that I’ve been unemployed most of my son’s 17 years of life because I couldn’t handle parenting and that level of outside obligations, so most of those happened before I was 25 – so 20ish jobs between 15-25

how bout you, how many things have you tried?

      I had a routine that I would do every other day that would hit big box stores and light industrial areas, then ebay it. Not sure it’s really feasible now, stores don’t throw out as much as they did.
