Do I have to tell a future employer that I have tourette's?

I keep that shit to myself. Nobody at work knows or if they know they haven't said anything

I have too because i have major vocal outbursts. They aren't pretty either.

I don't think you have to unless it is serious and could cause problems for them. I have a friend with it and he jerks his arm and one time he hit me in the eye. I got mad just for a second and calmed right down because I knew he didn't do it on purpose, but something like that I would say yes tell them but they would know way before you were to tell them. His has calmed down alot with age, I'm glad to see it did because he was always thinking people were making fun of him and I knew some were but not as many as he thought. Have a great day

If you have it under control and you don't cause a disruption with outbursts. I don't see why you would need to tell them but that's up to you.

@SoulAsylum The only time it can be an issue is when I get frustrated and I have been known to lash out and say mean things. For example someone will be rude to a coworker and on top of that it's busy and it's stressful and then someone will be mean to me and all of that makes me snap a little. I'll say things like I should snap their necks in front of their family. My anger won't match the situation.

I also have issues where my talking gets loud for no reason. I dont realize I'm nearly yelling
