The selections, BTW, are from Asperger Syndrome Employment Workbook by Roger Meyer. This is part of my job search, but I also had plans to do activities to improve areas where I have the lowest level of social understanding.

I did not add

• 'Greeting and departure phrases, gestures, body language'
  
• 'Honesty and frankness'
  
• 'Social lies'
  
• 'Making up stories that are believable'
  
• 'Factual lies'
  
• 'Social conversation during work time'
  
• 'Social conversation during breaks, lunch, or dinner'
  
• 'How my attitude fits in with attitudes of others around me'
  
• 'Your choice of work associates, team members, and partners'
  
• 'Socializing on the job with work associates'
  
• 'Socializing off the job with work associates'
  
• 'Knowing the unwritten rules for promotion'
  

I thought I already had a good handle on these topics, had distinct preferences due to how I work (i.e., either block out conversation or don't work), or haven't encountered many situations where I had to do that (I cannot pick my co-workers). I may very well need to work on these.
