[Trainer-talk] Sighted Assistance for Computer Set-up

[Shawn Keen]

Hi,
I've used craigslist to hire drivers and I have used my driver for
assistance since he has technical knowledge as well where appropriate of
course.  I've also used face time to get me out of a bind.

I have used Craigs List to hire readers, and I would think it should work
for technical help too!

Hello. I've had a couple of instances where it was necessary to get sighted
assistance to set-up a computer or fix errors, etc. Was wondering how others
in the field, especially those without other available sighted staff,
handled this situation? I've thought of posting on Craigslist for part-time
help though since this is an as-needed situation, it may be more difficult
to find a taker. Since I'm getting paid to solve the issue, I don't have a
problem with hiring someone to help out.

Looking forward to your thoughts.
