NL has poor short term memory, but fantastic long term. The trick is how to get things from short term to long term. For "normal" brains, that may be repetition, for ADD brains, repetition probably doesn't work because concentration goes out the wayside.
NL has had several jobs now and excelled at all. But to do so, expectations must be very clear up front. There must be no long string of directions, but one by one steps. He's doing best in the cooking field - he was doing garde manger work and is currently making gelato at a very small company (just him and the owner).
