[quote=Anonymous]OP, you didn’t reply about his specific job, but I worked at pools for years and have watched generations of kids thrive or fail in their summer jobs as a parent and pool goer. I also have family who struggled with finding the right job fit for their autism and distinct abilities, but who have been ultimately successful. One summer job struggle doesn’t mean their life is over. If you can share their role, I can guess at where they might be getting tripped up. And I’ll also say that I’ve seen plenty of NT kids struggle in summer jobs, especially at pools where there is a lot of responsibility but also a lot of things that need to be tackled proactively and change constantly. Whether it’s maintenance, front desk, guarding, teaching lessons, or working at a snack bar, none of the jobs are as easy or fun as they look.[/quote]
