its been 5 months, pretty good, huh? 

 

im just not a team player what can i do. lets blame my parents for this pd that makes me think i know everything better and disrespect authorities smh

 What's the longest youve been able to keep a job and why exactly are you resigning? 

 9 months

 Oh that's pretty long.  Why leaving? 

 9 months in a job isn't long at all??

 I tend to get pretty restless in most of my jobs and tend to leave right before the one year mark. Usually something bigger and better with more benefits and pay increase. I'd like to site the idea that staying in the same job actually makes you lose money but really its that i get bored really easily of people, everything is so shiny and new at first and once I've mastered something I've got no motivation for it afterwards. 

9 months to me is pretty long, it's also pretty long for someone that's got no ability to socialize or is unable to fit in with their workmates.(ahem, Friedrich)

This works for your sort of field, but I'd think that being unable to stay anywhere for even a year would look poorly on a college educated position, interviewers are very prone to asking about such things when the turnover isn't capable of going as quickly.

You don't like crazy? You prefer easier patients? 

I know right? This makes about as much sense as an anorexic chef. 

Oh my god it exists, this is worse than masochism:

 Idk, while some narcs can thrive and be successful for appearance there are others that absolutely cannot work under someone else and will almost immediately start causing problems 

 fun fact: cooking and shit like that is a hobby very commonly found in people with eating disorders like anorexia. 

also it just gave me a weird invalid html error message trying to quote TCs post

I mean I get that they can't stop thinking about food, but going as far as to cook it's madness if they won't even eat it. 

I'd get it moreso for Bulimia, they let themselves partake in it and then purge it back up. If they can't even touch it they're also entirely wasting food, or in the case of doing it as a chef that'd be like cutting yourself while watching groups of strangers enjoy it. 

How common though? I can't find stats on it.

 More common than you would think. I encountered it quite often in practice and it was mentioned in a weekend seminar on eating disorders when I was in uni. I still have the slides as reference, but they do not give a source for that.

Okay that's a cool anecdote but is there somewhere with stats I can use for a more overall understanding? I know it's a bitch when people ask for proof to be exterior to their own experiences like that but this is actually something I'm curious over if it's the case, rather than just playing along this time. 

I usually saw Restrictive Anorexics avoiding food entirely, and Bulimics account for part of the Anorexic population when it comes to census data. To have the ones who won't even take a nibble be cooking for people, as a profession or even when living alone as opposed to cooking for a family or some shit, just seems excessive on a path that's already trying way too hard. I can't even imagine the inner motivation mantras they'd be going through, to not eat for days while watching groups of people enjoy what you just watched sizzle, what just creeped in your nose to remind you of food. 

The hardcore ones would probably feel sick as fuck with all those food scents. 

If you really are interested I can go through my old slides but it will probably not be before the weekend.
