Has anyone ever taken the Dale Carnegie course and found it helpful for Aspergers?

I never took a course, but I did read "How To Win Friends And Influence People." It didn't help me any.

Thanks, K4NNW. I'll post my question in the jobs forum. Maybe Dale Carnegie is just for being successful on the job. Social rules in corporations are even way weirder than just regular social life.

That's what I've gathered. That could also explain why I've never flourished in an office setting. The cabin of a truck is a much simpler place (when it comes to human interaction) than a typical office.
