Hi Edwin it's Leslie. I feeling he did jump in here regarding posting the
jobs on the list. First of all, I think it is very appropriate what connie
is doing by posting these jobs on the list. Some of us may have friends or
family that are unemployed that are looking for jobs. Second, the reason the
jobs are not restricted to those who are for line people is because if we
limit ourselves to jobs only for blind people, we are boxing ourselves into
a corner. Who cares the third for blind people or not? They are job listings
and that's all that matters. Last, you say you would be disrespecting Konny
by deleting a message from her. But aren't you disrespecting her even more
by posting these kinds of comments on the list? I think what she was saying
was that if you see jobs in the subject or job listings in the subject you
don't want to read them, simply hit the delete key. That would be a lot more
respectful, in my opinion, rather than to request that she only post jobs
for blind people. Furthermore, I think you were disrespecting her even more
when you say that a job posting is silly. Please give what I'm saying some
serious thought. And my final comment is this: time to move on.
