TerryL, I really like your idea of a "dream job."

Once I stayed at a job for long enough to where they all could sort of figure out my issues. I mean - like - they knew who I was, upside and downside. The most important of my supervisors did the Math and decided I was a net positive. After 3 years, I got a promotion and they were supportive beyond my hopes. They knew how I was slow in figuring out new circumstances and they gave me extra time and coaching. That gift turned potential failure into glowing success.

If I get offered the job I interviewed for, I might just tell the supervisor "Look, here's the deal . . . " Otherwise, there's "having to pretend" . . . pretend I don't have problems that will become obvious anyhow. Why can't the world be more like PC?
