<span style="font-size:14.0pt">I'm not quite sure if saying they don't care are the correct words to use. Yes I was and still am very angry after what I heard. However I must ask what are you doing to help yourself seek employment. The problem as I see is these individuals who work in these sheltered workshops aren't doing anything to try to help their own cases. As I said it's true I have been unemployed for 3 years now in June, and I have had 2 unsuccessful job placements one was my problem because of the fact that I couldn't memorize the screen, since it was for poling the script was constantly changing. the other was I would say my ride or New Haven's para-transits. I was taken to the wrong S&S and became so frustrated I walked off the job. <u></u><u></u></span></p>

That you my friend are an extremely intelligent individual and are capable of accomplishing great things. If yu try. Don't let yourself be put in the position that so many of have (including myself) that is to depend on BESB/DORS or anyone other than yourself or your parents make your decisions for you. You can do anything, you want if you stand fast & Stay strong.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
