A company that places disabled people in Government and private sector jobs is trying to place me in a job. My resume probably was approved today.  I am looking for a customer service or clerical job.  they require knowledge of Microsoft office and good typing.  I'm taking an online course for Microsoft Office now but my typing speed is really slow.  I worked in government before and fast typing wasn't required.  My typing is slow because I can't type correctly because I have Motor Disability.  (fine hand coordination problems) When I worked at McDonalds I couldn't assemble the sandwiches because of it so I cooked and washed dishes.  My disability is schizoaffective disorder.  I haven't worked since 2009 except for some comedy gigs.  They haven't asked about my typing speed yet.  I'm gonna pray I can improve my typing speed and finaly get a job.

        Personally, I think yer better off being a comedian. but I guess if you get a job working for the government, it's the same thing.

Ha Pappy! I was gonna say the exact same thing! But I was trying to keep it simple. 

(That's fricken hilarious. I was gonna write "if you get a job working for the government, you'd be working with a bunch of clowns".)
