My son was diagnosed with speech delay disorder and asperger (I thought it was called Ashbergers) syndrome (very slight autism - totally high functioning), so I know the struggles are real.

Of special note is the abnormalities in social interaction, and limited empathy with their peers. This particular person doesn't seem to get along with anyone, nor does he appear to care to. He has a habit of constantly reporting what he deems grievous issues of misconduct to the boss, but the issues are typically trivial. He is almost incapable of working with other people, as he must do things his way or he gets very agitated. Wait, I have just described 70% of the people I work with. Wait again, I have just described me!
