Lumelore (She/her)

I learned that being autistic and working for large employers does work well at all. Although I have only worked for one big company but they probably all suck anyways.

My first ever job was at Walmart, which was an absolutely miserable experience. I didn’t last long there cause no one liked me and the managers hated my guts for no reason. I was always on time, did my work, and never complained but I was consistently treated like I was lazy and a troublemaker. I remember getting yelled at by management and having absolutely zero idea what I even did that was wrong.

All my other jobs have been at small businesses and they have always been infinitely nicer and kinder than Walmart ever was. Small businesses are much quieter and they feel more human cause they don’t have many employees. I think they did realize that I’m a little bit off (didn’t tell them I’m autistic) but they were cool with it cause I did my work, just like I did at Walmart, but Walmart just fucking hates me for no good reason.
