[nabs-l] Working with the public

[Bridgit Pollpeter]

Ashley,

Label everything you can that you will use.  I would label the phone for
the functions that are accessible.  They do make accessible business
phones, but I'm not sure how much they cost.

Some things will require memorization, but if you are working using and
doing things frequently, you will grow familiar with everything.

Goodluck.

Bridgit

Bridget,
Thanks for your experience. I do use braille and like the idea of making
a 
removable label on a stack of papers.  Paper clipping will allow me to
use the label over again.  Yes GPS only does outdoors; so I guess I'll
need to 
memorize information.
How about phones?  I will have the extentions on the computer. But do
you 
think I should memorize some of them?
Do you think I'll need to label some phone buttons?
I decided since I'm intraverted, I'm most likely working with the public
but 
not in person; I will
be answering phones and emails among other projects. Thanks for your 
suggestions though on telling who is coming up to you.

Thanks.
