Welcome
Hi Andy: Welcome to the ADDitude forums - I hope we can help with your struggle adjusting to the work world. If you haven't discovered her already, our blogger Jane D. often chronicles her workplace struggles and successes - you might relate to some of her posts: http://www.additudemag.com/adhdblogs/1/index.html

Get written, rather than spoken, instructions
Set up a filing system
Break up big projects into smaller tasks
Tape-recording meetings and conversations
Request a desk in a quiet area
