    I know there are office jobs in supermarkets, so you can apply for an open position when it comes around. I also suggest you look into employment in schools. The hours are great and there are jobs not only in school offices,but even in the school district offices. The schools should be more accommodating of your learning disabilities.

    For example, I can't do the basic "stuff." I don't know my times tables by memory, but I can do Kramer's Rule in my sleep. I can compound drugs (medication) with my eyes closed, but I can't add 2+2 without using my fingers.


    Yeah my sister told me nobody in our family was good in math lol.
