What's your #ADHD career path?

[proedie@mastodon.green]

@adhd_coffee Same.

[themightygit@mstdn.social]

@adhd_coffee after finding out I have ADHD and hearing many heartbreaking life stories of those with it, I understand how blessed I am to have an overlap in all three areas. The rest of my life may be 16 blenders trying to blend each other, but working in tech for a living has been good to and for me. Big hugs to those struggling, I hope you find your thing, whatever that thing is, and for however long it helps.

@adhd_coffee Luckily you can control at least one of the circles, skill up, and create a niche for yourself. At least that is the theory.

@adhd_coffee right in the middle, I don't like it, it doesn't make a lot and it doesn't really require to be good at it

@adhd_coffee
For me it’s the classic pick two… 😉

[dzwiedziu@mastodon.social]

@adhd_coffee
Yes

[the_wub@mastodon.social]

@adhd_coffee Looks a lot like the autistic spectrum career path to me.

@adhd_coffee I just decided that one single path doesn't really do it for me, so I moved on a boat and jump between all kinds of different projects that fit in different circles ( some even all 3 :P) >_<

[thegardendude@regenerate.social]

@adhd_coffee Painfully accurate

@TheMightyGit @adhd_coffee I see, a fellow developer

6 o clock.
with "and contains a
modicum of socail good/necessity" tacked on the end

[art_histories@mastodon.social]

@adhd_coffee Yes. Although, very unfortunately I am bad at stuff that makes money.

[awfulostrich@mastodon.social]

@adhd_coffee I had to start my own business to get those to overlap. After 11 years my niche business is too boring for me and I'm turning over operations to my senior employee. Now I get to try to find another job and I'm trying to figure out what to leave off the resume? Cowboy? Assistant Alpaca shearing professional? R&D electronics engineer?

[rail@social.flufftech.net]

@adhd_coffee unemployment.

[rexxdeane@mastodon.online]

@adhd_coffee Hmm, mine's got a part where they all overlap, but it's then trapped entirely in a huge circle labelled 'Anxiety'.

[melissaatwell@mindly.social]

@adhd_coffee yeeeaaahhh… imma gonna need to get tested because THAT graphic hit right on target for me. Ouch, but thank you! 🤯 😮 😒

[davidr@hachyderm.io]

@adhd_coffee very lucky that mine are nearly a circle

not just a software engineer, but at an R&D place that is always looking for new ideas partially-implemented
