How long has his career been? How old is he?

No I have fired feds for similar.

Yup same with my husband. Was undiagnosed ADHD

Time for divorce.

He should apply for a government job.

Could he have undiagnosed ADHD?

With all the tech available why isn’t he putting in deadlines, reminders, etc?

Sounds like ADHD.

OP, what do you mean you're at the end? Like you're going to leave him because of it? Was his ability to bring in a paycheck the only thing he had going for him? (I mean, yeah, those men exist.)

My husband has been fired several times. But none of the things he's been fired for are things that affect me. It's not for lying, or swiving the interns, or embezzlement. He just doesn't play well with others sometimes. But he plays great with me; we're very complementary. He has so much more value than a paycheck. And he's smart enough to make himself valuable to the household in non-monetary ways.

Or early onset dementia

You will be surprised to learn so many useless middle managers earning their high salary doing nothing turn out fine.

Agree, is this your husband of 30 years or 5 years?

Gosh, this is terrible. I’m sorry. Not an ounce of grace from employer… was this his first time missing a deadline?

Inattentive ADHD. He needs meds. They will be life changing.

I have a friend in this situation. Her husband is former military and just can't adjust to life on the outside. He's been fired repeatedly. She has nothing good to say about him, but stays with him anyway.

Sounds like one of my ex boyfriends. Once I realized he couldn't function if not in military environment, I got out of that relationship.

This happened to the DH of a friendof mine. It turned out he had early onset Alzheimers.

I would definitely have this assessed. He may be able to get disability.
