I hate messing up and she never really trained me to do my job, she expected 30 years of experience from someone who wasn't even alive that long and just got their college diploma! She thought I had a learning disability and when I had a panic attack/meltdown in her office she demanded I look at her. She fired me when I came back from vacation. She was one of the worst people I have ever met and my therapist even said that if I told HR I could have taken her to court for harassment. I am slowly getting better with my new job because everyone is more patient and the boss (I still get nervous around him but I actually talk to him!And he hasn't made me feel stupid either) is nicer. Four people left after they canned me and loads of people had issues with her over the years so it wasn't just me. I think she was one of those people who viewed Aspergers as an excuse or a mental illness and that I was defective because of it. I still have confidence issues, but slowly getting better.

My previous job tried to fired me and those good boss all left. I was chewed out because of my hearing impairment disability and treat as if I had a mental disorder or was stupid. My district manager was shock to find out of how well I could perform my job even though I had a disability. I finally quit my job.
