A working strategy

I finally got fed up with how people regarded my apparent laziness. Generally your boss gets annoyed when you don’t show up for work every day. I tried to tell him when he hired me that things like that were going to happen. More often than not, it was reduced into a ‘where the hell have you been’ type of argument.

That’s why it so important to lay out all the issues with your boss before he/she hires you. You don’t want to be part of a club that would have you as a member. No, wait. That came out wrong. You don’t want to work for inflexible people.

Be sure to let your employer know what to expect in case of a seizure. It’s just easier on you. It saves money if you don’t really have to got to the ER. And screw the employees that must endure watching you flop around on the floor. You don’t need friends that are easily freaked out.

And, most importantly, don’t be a home-body. You don’t have to work from home. People will understand. Maybe not the first people you meet, but, eventually, you’ll find people that understand. If not, tell ‘em all to go fuck themselves.

For generations epileptics were regards as people touched by God. Epileptics are widely regarded to have a special insight into our very existence. And even if you don’t find a special insight, be aware that those who suffer greatly in this life are able to recognize real pain. We know what’s important. So, in that regard, we do have a special insight. You can see that insight in the great epileptics through history.

No despair. Despair is the mind killer.
