[QUOTE="Geordie_P, post: 1485898, member: 343949"] Yes, that's fair enough, and if that *is* the message that gets out, then great. My worry, given that the general public isn't that knowledgeable about type 2, and that this is one of the highest profile 'mentions' of the condition, is that people will simply take this as suggesting that type 2 makes you unreliable and easily confused at work. What do most people think about type 2? (if they think about it at all) Probably that you catch it by being fat and greedy The idea that mere hunger can render diabetics incapable of handling figures and basic work tasks looks like an easy, albeit toxic, complement to this.
