[rehab] Seeking RFPs on eye wear purchase

[Dick Davis]

Hi,

I agree, it was unnecessarily critical.  Perhaps the commenter didn't mean
it that way, and will try to make it right.

The original question was a sensible one.  Frequently our employers give
us assignments that require us to do research in order to perform them
successfully.  The ability to do it is an important job skill.  The
individual who asked the question thought enough of the people on this
list to seek their advice, and should not have been criticized.

Remember, everyone, that one of the rules of this list is that we treat
each other with courtesy and respect.  Rudeness drives people away,
including employers who are looking to hire blind people.  That defeats
the purpose of the list.

If you feel the need to say something critical, think again.

Dick Davis
Chair, Employment Committee

No kidding! I kind of felt that response was a bit rude and unnecessary
myself.

Wow!  Remind me never to come to this list with any concerns or seeking
information, as I might get charming commentary such as that. LOL
