[Trainer-talk] using the nbp computer reference cards

[Nancy Coffman]

Hello:
I
 would tell my boss that firstly, they are in properly formatted Braille and 
secondly, my time and trouble, not to mention the embosser wear and paper, 
is worth more than $5.  Would they rather an employee purchase a reference 
booklet or spend time, paper and energy printing out and binding the help 
files from Microsoft?  I have done both and when I can get an NBP reference, 
I just quietly pay up and enjoy.
