Volunteering is not a bad thing at all, and I will say that I have been on the BUILD Team for some time now,and enjoy it. Also, those of you who are hating on the NFB about this should not even be on this list in my personal opinion. Also, those of you who are spouting off this nonsense do not understand that there are a ton of organizations who use volunteers some of which I have volunteered with such as Habitat for Humanity and a Wildlife Refuge. Other organizations that have volunteers are hospitals, and many small towns and rural communities have all volunteer fire departments and EMS agencies like where I currently live. So, volunteering is not a bad thing like some of you try to make it out to be,and I will say this now, I will eventually be looking for volunteers to help out with my coffee business when the timing is right, but the two posts I have seen so far against volunteering on the BUILD Team, those two people can forget it completely.</pre><pre> </pre><pre>Jordan</pre><pre> </pre><pre> </pre><pre> </pre><pre>From: Job-Discussions <a href="mailto:job-discussions-bounces@nfbnet.org"><job-discussions-bounces@nfbnet.org></a> On Behalf Of Corey Cook via Job-Discussions</pre><pre>Sent: Friday, August 28, 2020 4:10 PM</pre><pre>To: Job Discussions internet Mailing List <a href="mailto:job-discussions@nfbnet.org"><job-discussions@nfbnet.org></a></pre><pre>Cc: Corey Cook <a href="mailto:corey.cook01@gmail.com"><corey.cook01@gmail.com></a></pre><pre>Subject: Re: [Job-Discussions] NFB BUILD Program</pre><pre> </pre><pre> </pre><pre> </pre><pre>I don't know why is it exactly you expect blind people to work for you for free pretty much. </pre><pre> </pre><pre>Sent from my iPhone</pre><pre> </pre><pre> </pre><pre> </pre><pre> </pre><pre> </pre><pre>On Aug 28, 2020, at 3:51 PM, Gabe Vega Commtech LLC via Job-Discussions <<a href="mailto:job-discussions@nfbnet.org">job-discussions@nfbnet.org</a> <a href="mailto:job-discussions@nfbnet.org"><mailto:job-discussions@nfbnet.org></a> > wrote:</pre><pre> </pre><pre>? </pre><pre> </pre><pre>and since we are on the topic, why does a group who advocates for everyone else to hire the blind, and spouts off on why blind people should not be worked for free. want to get blind people to work for free?</pre><pre> </pre><pre> </pre><pre> </pre><pre> </pre><pre> </pre><pre>Gabe Vega</pre><pre>Tech Consultant</pre><pre>Commtech USA Bakersfield</pre><pre>2005 Eye Street</pre><pre>Suite 6 PMB 180</pre><pre>Bakersfield, CA 93301</pre><pre>Instagram: <a href="https://instagram.com/commtechusa">https://instagram.com/commtechusa</a></pre><pre>Facebook: <a href="https://facebook.com/commllc">https://facebook.com/commllc</a></pre><pre>Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/commtechusa">https://twitter.com/commtechusa</a></pre><pre>Email: <a href="mailto:info@commtechusa.net">info@commtechusa.net</a> <a href="mailto:info@commtechusa.net"><mailto:info@commtechusa.net></a> </pre><pre>Office: (833) 345-8324 Ext. 703</pre><pre>Fax: (661) 410-7577</pre><pre> </pre><pre>On 8/28/2020 10:10 AM, Dick Davis via Job-Discussions wrote:</pre><pre> </pre><pre>Dear List Members,</pre><pre> </pre><pre> </pre><pre> </pre><pre>The NFB BUILD program is a volunteer opportunity for blind people of all skill levels to assist in accessible evaluation and design.
