Hi imajican.

Here are one suggestion. A store were musical instruments are sold or maintained.

Your dark poetry is of my liking. It gives me instant images.
A bookshop is another possibility, especially one that sells second hand and older books. Another possibility is an antiques shop. Only trouble is, I don't know how many jobs there would be in this kind of thing but you wouldn't have to deal with nearly as many people as with fast food places.

My younger brother (also Aspie I think, but not officially diagnosed), used to make up rude rhymes, including one about Hungry's (which I think is run by the same people who own Burger King).

We mostly have Hungry Jacks here and I only know of one Burger King and that is at Melbourne airport.

I have obsessions and addiction to video games. It doesn't matter to anyone in my family really, and they think that it wouldn't get me anything. Despite the fact that video games are a popular product, that I'm very creative and have many plot ideas, and that groups do get payed for that stuff. My dad thinks that doctors are practicaly the only ones that get well payed. The stress of a doctors job isn't worth it for me, unless people don't have to socialise much in there.

People generaly don't think I can do anything in a talented way. The only things I had compliments and suggestions about, which is extremly rare in my life mine you, is that I should be more of a writer. I'm working on a fantasy thing right now, but my concience nagging and shoveing me "get a job! get job!" every minutes I'm awake makes me feel like I'm insane! i'm going nuts with the preasure of thinking that it's my life's purpose to display money earnings to my parents. Not a great feeling.

My interests have little value in my life to. It's not a great feeling, but I long ago accepted the idea that somethings aren't meant to be, even if we love doing it.


You should do what you feel you are set out to do, not what someone else tells you.  My parents want me to change my major to environmental science, but I want to stick with my major in geology--and that's what I am going to do.

Only you can decide what you want to do for a living.

Exactly, it's no good just trying to please other people all the time.
