[Blindtlk] Work Advice

[Judy Jones]

I'm not quite understanding your question, but post-it notes are used all 
the time in our office.  I use them myself, typing on them with a type 
writer for sighted colleagues and for mail recipients with signature 
instructions and so on.  I use them for myself as well, by brailling on them 
with the perkins brailler.

The type writer is a great tool for such things.  Filling out bank deposit 
slips for office deposits, (none of he offices uses an online system for the 
regional offices).

Do they make tactile postit labels so that a tactile dot does not have to be 
put on ourselves with a slate?  My mentor at work uses red and yellow postit 
labels to mark portions of contracts.  He doesn't want to give this system 
up.  I can understand this.  Any suggestions?

Also, any tips on reader persuasion?  They seem to be more comfortable with 
technology than human readers.  I've spoken to another blind contractor who 
uses a reader around 20 hours per week.  However, my office seems to not 
understand why this may be a viable service.

Thanks for the help!
