Ideal Workplace Values

My Neuro-exceptional talent
Currently I am very interested in being a researcher, but I'm having trouble figuring out what to do and where to go next. There are two experiences that led me to have an interest in that. One is helping out in the Georgia elections where Sen. Warnoff and Sen. Ossoff were successfully elected; I did population research for them as a volunteer. The other was when I was placed as an intern with Cong. Moulton for a few months and did a variety of projects for them, mostly focusing on research into subjects that either I was interested in or they were interested in. I'll talk more about this in the next section.

My work preferences are as follows: Work that ends at or before 5 PM Moderate pace of work, and notice in advance of sudden changes Having a supervisor write down feedback for me rather than in person so I can process it before responding. Having tasks clearly/well explained in writing Having a checklist of tasks to accomplish throughout the work day with due dates Something to be aware about me is that I wear hearing aids, but function as a hearing person.
