Wpowers,

thank you for sharing. The reason we ask is to get ideas about what type of places work. Of course there are many factors and we understand that. It would be good to have a list of what types of work have been best for people, what type of employers, what type of hours, etc etc. Kind of a resource of information. Maybe there are some true threads running through some of these positions. It is obvious that the people at your work are tolerant and caring. Thanks again for sharing your care, concern and information. We are listening/reading really hard and putting some ideas together as we go along.

I was kinda tossed into that title but did not want it. It was so odd because last Wed when I had my breakdown at work, even my customers were saying on the phone "Are you ok? You don't sound like you!" And I remember one customer really pushing the topic and my alter saying "I am an alter" !! My alters are very frank with the people in the office when they are out. But usually it is only my nurtering alter Elaine who comes out at work if I am spliting. She tries to be very nice and lets the boss know we are needing to step away a bit. So I think that being sincere about things does help.
