Mussie:
Nice to find you here! I am sorry to have missed the chance to go to the
Bay Area recently. We were going to attend a NCADB event, but then the
program was put on hold. Then it wasn'['t on hold anymore but basically
closed, along with most of the company's operations. Fortunately, we still
hadn't that many consumers in your area. In other areas, it was chaos!
As I mentioned before, I have to decide between taking a similar job or
going to graduate school. The job would pay good and right away, but it is
not quite what I really want to do. School means being really poor for a
while, but at the end I'll be able to get a tenure-track post at a
university, doing what I really want to do. If I was single and had no
children, I'd go the latter route without any questions. But that's not the
case.
Any advice or thoughts?
John

Welcome John Lee Clark. I have joined this list several months ago, but I
remained totally absent because I, too, have been really busy.
Pardon me everyone on this list if I failed to introduce myself first. I am
Mussie Gebre from the Bay Area of Northern California. I am deaf-blind and
currently provide assistive tech training and consulting, but my current
college education significantly limits my ability to work with additional
clients and organizations throughout California.
