[Ohio-talk] Just a thought I have had

[Wanda Sloan]

Are they hiring?  I need a job.  To me this can be important, I guess if you 
are looking from a blind person's point of view.  But I need to know more 
about this business before I make a determination if this in inappropriate 
or not.

I work    where every 6 months they change managers and teams so you may 
work with one team for 6 months and then also be moved to the other end of a 
jiant building. Well because I am blind I got a choice to stay with my 
manager and not change seats. I had no major problems with keeping the 
manager but she was moving and I wanted to sit with my team. The said they 
would have to get goodwill to come out and train me how to walk to my new 
seat. I told them that was not necessary. I must admit that the company that 
I work for has been very willing to learn.
The thing that plegs me is that another company that I am aware of has 
around 15 blind people working there and they have the same manager and sit 
in the same row of seating. They feel very comfortable with these 
arrangements but I certainly would not.
I guess if some one came in and did not they would still have to sit there. 
This to me seems to have some subtle set backs.
What do you think? Richard
