My company has this obsession with need analysis, and proving that people need our gym. They are big and corporate and obsessed with themselves. Being big and corporate doesn't make you a good gym.

Because the economy is s**t, there are more people seeking jobs than jobs available, and people suck. That's basically it.

*sobs loudly* I work in sales and it's HORRIBLE. I mean... mostly because my company is horrible. I actually kinda like when people join my gym and achieve fitness goals.

Hi, Cathy. I've been trying to get a job like that for ages. I used to work at a residential facility with traumatized children but left after funding got tight and we took on more children with psychotic symptoms that we were not really equipped to treat.

I have a green belt in Taekwondo (obtained last month before financial issues took hold), I also just started brazilian jiu jitsu.

Are there any other ASD grapplers who find the physical contact a challenge? Like put my hands where? Head where? I'm looking at it as a learning tool.
