Found a
sadcow (archive) who reminds me of
Aaron McCluske, he even has his own version of Aaron's 'I special needs has autism OCD tourettes low IQ fear of crods' copypasta. He's on probation for assault and keeps getting fired from cart wrangling and stockboy jobs at Walmart and Target for tard raging and attacking his supervisor or stalking his female coworkers, and blames his sped 'job couch' for not having any money.

This is borderline illegible to me until I took the time to try to understand this. I went ahead and rewrote it clearly so other people can read it more easily.
"Hello, everybody. So, I don't know where to start. I need to get this off my chest, and this is going to be very long. I'm about to be kicked out of this program that helps disabled people find jobs, and I screwed up big time. There's a job coaches who are meant to help you with your job. My own job coach works for the state.
"The problem is, I don't want a job coach because I don't want to feel like a child, but I still have one anyway. At Walmart, I had a job stocking shelves. It was hard for me and I didn't know how to do it. I'm not good with numbers, but the people I work with at Walmart don't know I'm disabled. That, on top of how I don't want them to see me with a job coach following me around, convinced me to stop showing up. Not only that, but the workers from my program say I'm weird and nasty, and they're threatening to kick me out of it.
"My mom said that she's not going to help me because she won't defend me if I keep complaining about it. I don't know what to do. I'm so angry, and the managers only make things worse. At work, I was cleaning up empty boxes in the store's storage room and garage. The trash was eventually too full, so I just left them on the ground since I saw other employees do the same thing and the manager never seemed to care. But when I did it, he got mad and started yelling in my face, saying it's not his job to clean up my mess. I feel like this was discrimination. He knows I'm disabled because he saw my job coach. But Walmart didn't do anything about it, and my family said they weren't going to help me.
"My job coach always says to call her when I have any trouble, and this was the first time I did so. But she didn't do anything to help me with my manager. I soon told her I wanted a different job, and all she said was that it was fine. I don't know why, but after this, I got so emotional that I left my house for a while.
"I have poor reading skills, low functioning autism, ADHD, and other disabilities. I feel like I screwed up big time, and I'm getting so angry that I don't listen to these people anymore, especially my job coach. She started calling me and I never answer because I'm so sad and so angry. I'm so upset that I can't even walk into a retail store, let alone to work at Walmart. I don't know what to do.
"Walmart needs to do a better job training disabled people. When I got training, I was only trained for a single day. But now I basically have no job, no home, nothing. I don't know what to do. The people at the program found out that I've been ignoring my job coach and they're going to kick me out of this program when I meet with them on Monday. My own family even offered to try to talk to me about the situation, but when I asked to help, they said 'no.'
"To be honest, I wish I was normal. Maybe this is the reason why I'm having so many problems. When I'm at a job, I can't focus at all. I tried to work for UPS, and I didn't like it. The managers thought that because I could read some words, I can read perfectly fine in general, and they believed I was just pretending to not understand whatever I had to read. I left the job after one manager yelled and swore at me to do a packaging label correctly.
"I've been to so-called "special education" classes in school, but they didn't teach me how to do things like how to make friends. That felt like I went through hell, and I never even finished high school. I don't know what to do. I lost three jobs because of my ADHD and because nobody ever helped me.
"My mom thinks I'm only acting this way to get attention. They don't understand what it's like to have ADHD or a learning disability, and they think that I'm perfectly normal and only acting. Not only that, but my dad left when I was just six years old. But I think I found out why I've been suffering all this time. It's because my dad left, and it's affecting me to this day. Two months ago, I found out my sister had been talking to my dad, but he's not once asked me how I was doing all this time.
"I'm 27 years old, but I feel like I'm getting physically weaker. I've been having knee problems. But all I do is just stay home in bed. I can't drive because I don't know how, and I can't use a bus because it costs $3.50 and I can't afford it.
"I feel like my job coach is punishing me because I left Walmart. She even told me that the job wasn't fit for me after I had quit, and now I have to meet her at noon on Monday along with my sociol worker. I feel like they won't help me now, because I've been bullied and harassed all my life and nobody helped me then."
This is rather distressing to read. Looking at his other posts, his Reddit content is almost entirely him complaining about having mental disabilities, most of which are the same post just copied onto other Reddits. From what I can see, the guy's got it tough all around, but some of his issues stem from him misunderstanding people and their intentions. He needs a job coach, but doesn't use her help because he feels like he's being babied. He also doesn't believe she can help him, even if she has yet to fail him while his family (namely his mother) allegedly ignored him, so he chooses not to rely on her help based on his experiences with unrelated people in the past.
However, I believe he may also be misjudging his mother, who seems to have gotten upset because she got him into the disability program yet he refuses their services. In response, his mother most likely asked if he was faking his disability as a way to berate him rejecting his job coach. That's how I see it, but it's difficult to tell since he's not a reliable narrator. He does contradict himself with this post in particular, though:
According to Amazon, that specific phone is around $400-650, and was made no more than a year ago. Given his referring to the phone using past tense, it can be assumed that he has since gotten a new one even later on. Thus, I cannot believe he was thrown out by his family, especially given that he's somehow unemployed and unsupported yet recently gotten two expensive pieces of technology, if not more. Given that these posts were made in rapid succession not more than a day ago, he may have just gotten into an argument with his mother and used his Reddit account to complain about what's wrong in his life. Furthermore, look at this post.
He left Walmart all for getting yelled at for throwing empty boxes on the floor, and he believes he was being discriminated against despite the manager at the time most likely not knowing he was disabled (as he simply assumed the manager knew somehow). He unquestionably has a mental disability, but his perception of being treated cruelly or unfairly is heavily warped, causing him to grow frustrated enough to vent in rapid succession via Reddit posts. This idea is only enforced by not only how so many of his posts are less than a week old, but all he talks about is that very Walmart incident, such as below.
He also says that his job coach and social worked "teamed up" against him at their assistance meeting, but they most likely were just scolding him for quitting his job and ignoring their calls on a whim because he had a small argument with somebody completely detached from those two women. I don't believe he was ever in danger of being "kicked out" of the program either, somebody (either his mother or the job coach) most likely just warned him of that possibility to convince him to cooperate.
It's unfortunate that he has these disorders, but this isn't as sad as it may seem at face value, as he clearly has a family who cares for and supports him. Otherwise he wouldn't be spending a thousand dollars on phones or been signed up for job assistance by his family. He's just had a few bad days and hates the world right now.
As a side note, he doesn't use punctuation because he types on a phone and doesn't know where the punctuation keys are.
Anyway, I don't know how to segue into these next posts I found so...well, here they are.
