Short answer? I'm crazy. LOL! I was diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder about 7 years ago, which totally explained lots of things about my life. About a year ago I started having problems with my productivity levels at work. I kept telling them which stuff I could do better at and which stuff I couldn't ever do at the required speed. Even though they knew I had ADD, they didn't start giving me the stuff I was good at until I mentioned the Americans with Disabilities Act when I was in a meeting with Human Resources. Things got better at that point, but I made the appointment with the ADD clinic anyway so I could get more up to date tests & also get a more current diagnosis on file with HR at work.
