I'm trying to find a career where I can work by myself. I can work with people some, but just not all of the time. :kickingmyself: yes it is aggravating. :cuttingmyhair:

I can imagine it could be a good job for people with SA, though I've never been a truck driver so I can't say for certain. :) I did watch an entertaining documentary once about truck drivers, which might give you an idea of some of the pros and cons: "Big Rig" FULL Movie - YouTube

it is if you can deal with the timing of deliveries, driving a big unit, backing it into spaces. Also got to have patience in traffic and you need to call customer and head office if you're running late.

I will take a guess that it's hard work and lonely work. Being on the road for days/nights, being alert all the time. I think people have to be quite strong mentally to keep it up.

Depends. I guess it's good to avoid what you fear, but it's bad if you want to improve your condition.

My grandfather apparently had SA too.
And he was a truck driver for years until he retired.
My mother always brings it up and tells me that it would be the best job for me.

It would be perfect.

I mentioned HGV or van during a follow-up meeting with my neurologist, backed up by his little registrar - the perfect to work as a team as people who are there to control me and fight against me.

I have asked about the simplest driving jobs but everyone's relished job is to prevent me from working. 50 years' experience of anything required.

Nice statement that a person who has suffered a few epileptic seizures with 3.5 or 4 years gap without. A liability. And anyone who wants to fly a plane or helicopter. Probably the same for a little lawnmower. The right attitude of a doctor to assume any person with this condition will be affected every day, from today, forever. A dilemma to try a usual application form where the clear questions include 'epilepsy' where I was truthful. To easily get through any simpleton, is to not declare it and get hired but even the consequences of law later, it becomes a personal matter to affect the confidence to try it.

I keep repeating the same signal. Maybe some of us feel the same?
Every effort to achieve is blocked by: punchbag of every :kickingmyself: authorised person from police, inpatient or outpatient doctor or recruiter makes it easy for them to hold you back and reject

The good of many outweighs the desire of one
