My sister and I are neurodivergent women. While my sister cannot take "academic" classes, she can paint and draw on multiple artistic mediums.
She also plays the drums and records her lessons.

Some people break off contact with me when I say I am Austistic as well. I was formerly diagnosed as having Asperger's Syndrome when I graduated from secondary school in British Columbia.

Canada uses America's DSM definitions and once the DSM V was created: Asperger's was lumped in with Autism.

I asked for 20 initially, but they are not willing to go beyond 15 without any counter offer. HR flat out rejected 20 saying business will not approve. what is the max they will give after providing counter offer? And if i join around November, when will i be eligible for next appraisal? They are offering c1 band.
