[Blindtlk] inferiority complex???

Thu Jun 3 14:56:10 UTC 2010

hi,

so you want someone to slant it towards you with computers/programming, 
here's one;
i was the first impaired/blind person to attend a local trade school for 
computer programming had b+ average and couldn't get hired after completing 
the program.
Then drifted between attending job fairs and working at a factory and was 
invited into a program that only accepts 8-10 people per year again for 
programming, passed all of the evaluations performed by IT managers of major 
local companies and again couldn't get a programming job.
I don't make as much as i thought i would and have to battle another favored 
vendor but finally decided to create my own job as solving hardware issues 
and provide software training for blind clients.
So just because you can sit in a cumfy chair and type code, don't think you 
will have a job waiting when you are done with college courses.
