All the best,

I left the work force mostly because I was unreliable and not very productive.

I couldn't handle noise, and was having a hard time commuting, so they set me up to work from home. This permitted me some flexibility and I worked random hours throughout the day.

Eventually I had difficulty conforming to deadlines, mostly because I was having back to back attacks. They were even kind enough to adapt my workload so that deadlines weren't so critical.

Then came the point where I was really very unproductive and was sleeping most of the day away. It really became to unfair continue to expect a paycheque for what I was actually accomplishing in a day. They STILL let me make this decision for myself though (what a great company, eh?!).

Managing my MS became a full-time job, and I was living only to work (and not doing a good job of that either). That is when I made my decision.
