I appreciate you sharing, I am sorry to hear about your friend. My guess on the downvotes are they interpreted my question as saying that I didn't see a place for people with seizures in the workforce. I guess I could have tried to phrase it better...
Part of the reason I asked what I did is because I feel that work and having work is important to people. It's one of the things I think about as we introduce more and more automation.
Some people are good with physical things, some with more mental and other things as well(caring, making something, etc.). Not having jobs that are able to satisfy leads to a large amount of our public strife.
I think about one of my uncles, he self described himself as a hellion when he was younger and credited either the Navy or the Merchant Marines(I think he was in both) as straightening him out. My understanding now is that you have to have a clean record to join, they are more professional organizations.
I have a friend who works with Doctors without Boarders. He goes into areas and sets up camps. He has a very strained relationship with his wife and kids because he is always going off someplace. He tried to stay, both working for others and then owning his own business but when I talked to him, he was not happy. He could not stand to be in the same place doing the same thing, he needed the newness and challenge.
I think about this when ever we talk about offshoring or industries going away and how people should just change jobs. It is a difficult problem.
