Redefining Unemployment for those with Aspergers or High Functioning Autism

I recently completed my article on redefining unemployment. Check it out: Redefining Unemployment

The basic idea is that Aspies and HFA folk should take up side projects during their time of not making money at a job. The benefits of this are:

• Volunteer work is more flexible and can be done from home often
• It keeps the social interaction chops up
• References from the work help with the job search
• Potentially you might find a job via the volunteer work
• More skills/results on your resume cannot hurt

I even offer some suggestions that can be done from home online such as:

• Volunteer to help Project Gutenberg preserve public domain texts on the web
• Help the Electronic Frontier Foundation wade through FOIA documents
• Become an Editor for the Open Directory Project in a category for a favored obsession
