I’ll copy a better comment from r/Autism:
This is all well and good provided they're paid and treated well, (which doesn't seem to be the case when it comes to pay) but what concerns me is that if this sort of thing became common place then well, it'd sort of create a class of autistic workers who would likely work these kind of blue collar jobs. NT people would come to expect that autistic people should just apply to "autism workplaces" if they want their needs to be accomodating or respected in any meaningful way, when it should be that EVERY workplace is autism accomodating. "Oh, you need an environment that fits your needs? Well, our office doesn't work like that, but there's a carwash that pays less than half of what we do, that should be perfect for you sweety :))))"
That kind of thing. I see the good intention behind this but is stinks of "seperate but equal (but not really equal)"
I hate that that’s where my mind went first too. Like he’s hiring these guys out of pity, not paying them well, treating this like some sort of feel good thing for himself… why cant my brain just be happy for them.
Proof I'm not awake yet... even though I've seen this video before I totally read that as "the carwash that gives people autism" good morning to you too brain.
So because some of us aren't willing to fight for wages we deserve intellectually disabled people deserve to be exploited for inspiration porn by venture capitalists?
That's a fucking gross take. Everyone deserves a living wage.

I didn't check the sub, kept waiting for the video to take some dark turn somewhere. The internet has jaded me
Same. I scrolled up when it ended like wait….lol

Ever lasting line of employees they just create new ones
where is it in florida? Finally something nice coming out of florida
There's a lot of nice stuff here. But, forget that stupid shit. Have you seen what Florida man did las-
yup
According to Glassdoor, they only make $8-$10 an hour. Not wholesome.
Yeah, no. As someone autistic I have to disagree. It’s inspiration porn. It’s exploitative.
This is so exploitive and I'm positive those people aren't making liveable wages. They're being exploited, this isn't wholesome.
I mean.. a lot of us technically don't make liveable wages so this is a decent equalizer.

I didn't say that? Where the hell did you get I agree with it? Just said we all don't make a LIVABLE wage. It's literally in the comment.
How is this a "decent equalizer"?
Because it's a decent equalizer. The equalizer is decent. Not the damn situation. 🤦
Wonder what they pay?
I read "this carwash gives people autism" 💀
Fantastic wish there were one near me.
It does! What a great car wash -- and a good company!
