Creating a diverse workplace group and taking control of your career

I have started a diversity chapter at my workplace and it has been very fulfilling. I encourage you to watch my video and see if you can start this at your workplace or find a work place that has such an environment that will allow you to excel in your career despite your disability
One of the positive things that has come out of the Covid pandemic is that companies are open to working from home. This is phenomenal for people with disabilities and chronic illness

Congratulations! I have AS too . I've been a Front Of House Receptionist for 10 years!!! I could not do the physical side of the job anymore. 8 hrs running around. Now I'm working Nights in a hotel. 2 min walk from my house. Its not busy . I can sit and walk when I need to. Read a book. Talk to my friends. Watch TV. But staying awake all night is not easy. I've wanted a job from home but it's very difficult to find in the UK. Well done to you 👏

Thank you for the congratulations. I think Canada has become extremely open as a country to allowing employees to work at home because of Covid. Hopefully you can find something like that. I'm so glad you have found something that works for you right now. It's scary because disability pays so little and i WANT to work

Wonderful job doing this! Best of luck to you and congrats on the promotion!! I have been looking for a remote job myself, even have gone back to school full time to get a degree so I can increase chance of a remote job….graduate this fall, super excited because like you, I’ve always felt that a promotion, or even a new career at this age could even be possible. But here I am…🤞😉
