>If you get bored and distracted easily,
Also, he's 21? His concept of 'bored easily' may be 'after 6 hours coding I need a break', or 'I've got way too much energy for this artificial desk job'.
When I was his age I couldn't hold down a 8-hr day job so I found freelancing suited me, so I could exercise and get out when I needed. I definitely do not have ADHD.
- jacques_chester 13y agoI'm not saying that he does. And I'm not saying that he doesn't. I am not a psychiatrist. My point is that it is relatively easy to investigate and that trying to solve inattentiveness with stultifying rigidity fortified with lashings of mindless tedium and extremely limited choice of work might not be the right move. Especially if it's genuinely due to an inborn condition that no amount of drill sergeants can yell out of you. Once you sign up, you can't easily get out without serious penalties. So it's worth exploring other possibilities first.
