My boss, her boss, and most if not all o fmy fellow employees know that I have autism, and it makes it much easier for me. I sometimes don't respond when people talk to me (I have a hard time with verbal speech), and they needed to know that I wasn't just being a jerk. I also come off very brusquely, I've been told, because it's so much work to get the words out at all that I don't sugarcoat things. I have a lot of trouble socially, of course, and I get myself in trouble all the time. So far, they're just happy that I do my work and do it well, and they basically accept me for what I am.
