I figured when I do disclose I might say "Oh, I have Aspergers Syndrome. It doesn't affect my job, I will have my good days and bad days but don't be surprised if I seem a bit off or may be slow to warm up. It is just a difference but I just want to make sure you are aware of it." I'll keep you posted.
This is a really great way of looking at it, Foo Fighter! A very healthy thought process you have there. Keep hold of it and never let go. I'm so pleased to hear things are going well. Your parents are also right, it is an explanation and not an excuse. I hope you get the job!
