something simple like janitorial work or manual labor.....not to mentally taxing and a great way to stay in shape

I am trying my hardest but it's just not going too well I think my learning disability is worse than I thought like today when I was working I had the worst trouble finding this certain brand and type of cigarettes this customer wanted and she was pointing and telling me where they were and I still couldn't find them and the customer got belligerent yeah that's what I deal with on a daily basis even when not at work. Everyday I feel I'm too stupid to work a job I just don't know what to do I wish there was a better support system for people like me
Sweetie,
Don't give up. You have to stick this out until you learn or get fired. And I doubt you will get fired. Just reading what you write I would want you working for me. I have managed retail and if an employee came to me and explained the learning disability it would show me you care and seeing that you do what you know well would make me want you on my team. You will learn it. All managers want is loyalty and the want to be better. And you show that. The rest will come with time. Just do not let it get to you. Be calm when you are having problems. Use the advise other here have given you. When I was younger and just starting in retail I had jobs that it took me longer than others to learn. But once I did learn I was one of the best at my job. You will get there. When I had problems, I would stay after my shift off the clock and watch. It helped me to see what I needed to learn. It shows you want to be better.

Strength comes with exercise. When you work hard to learn something, not only you learn it, but also you train your brain to be better in learning. Don't seek easier path, but make a more difficult one easier by getting stronger.

I'm actually glad to see that you are working at a friendly place. I remember when you first started posting and worrying that you couldn't get a job.
You are making progress and I hope the cheat sheets help you.
You show up on time and if you are reliable, they will make it work for you.
I can't hear well and my job has kept me on for a year and a half knowing that I wasn't as useful as other employees. I was a reliable and hard worker though and they appreciated that.
I can hear better now and so I'm giving back more now and taking on more responsibility.
Keep at it and you'll know your job inside and out.
You can do this.
