Sorry this is a few days old I only just found it..( I stole it from elsewhere & made some of the text red ),  but perhaps it may be an indication of small changes.

Nice one!  You don't often see adverts so specific in those they encourage to apply.  In fact, I don't think I've ever noticed one so specific...
Ooh, if I get sacked from my job for my Aspieness... I'd soooooooooooooooo be interested in something like that.

Glad to see they're interested in a bit of auti/aspie-diversity and not just representing the long-suffering parents of children 'suffering' from autism. Wink
