Dear friends,
It had been a great first month for me in our big family.
I am very happy you invited me to lunch sessions. I like all of you friends! You allow me, a greenhorn, to add on the business know-how and daily updates of the world in general. I am also really excited with the jokes I laugh at - I am sure you share my excitement. I think most of you like the way I smile and cheer up your day.
I do consciously know, though, that I may 'feel' weird.
I may behave like a spoilt brat or a loafer. I seem to daze around often. I may speak to myself at the desk. I may be easily distracted by the smell of food or loud sounds. I may repeat a few words unintentionally and unknowingly. I may unknowingly interrupt others while you are engaged in some interesting conversation I would like to join in, but not really adept enough to join in.
Also, in work, despite what I learnt in school, I may find it difficult to follow instructions if it's not clear-cut - something essential in our line of work. I may need you to repeat instructions over and over again.
I am not really misbehaving. I do not choose to misbehave, even though I try to.
I have autism.
Autism is a difference I have. I may not be able to interact or socialize the way most people do. It is just me.
I try to do my best doing what is best for my job performance. I keep trying.
However, with the fantastic support I received in this company, I am sure I will have a fruitful time with the company.
Have a great day ahead!
Cheers
Geordie
