Thanks for the reply. My boss started a few weeks after me and I was upfront with him -- though, I didn't specify I had chronic fatigue syndrome, as I'm always afraid that people will think lesser about my quality of work for some unjustified reason. He's been really accommodating of my needs, but I'm also one of the few to get everything done on time, which I'm sure helps.

Edit: to be more specific, I told him about my sleep issues and made it clear that I could not work outside of 9-5.

I hear ya. I've reported to people who just didn't get it, and assumed it was an excuse to be lazy. I've also reported to people who totally understood disability and the acquired neurodiversity that often accompanies it.

I suppose you can't active seek the latter, without having a framework and criteria for doing so -- which cements my personal thoughts on the need for radical transparency. The format of that I'm still struggling with :)
