Hi Channing

Welcome to Autism Hangout. I'm sorry you're in a situation that is causing you stress. In reading your note, it seems to me that the people your speaking to are following the rules as they understand them. I imagine they do understand your issue, but they themselves maybe powerless to make any changes.

This may be a situation that you must adapt to because there aren't any other alternatives.

I'm sorry.

Craig
