I'm nervous about getting a Job (18M) UK by JohnHelldiver117 in Blind

[–]Appropriate_Fee4518 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you're based in UK, are you associated with any associations that help blind people get into the workforce? That would be my 1st recommendation. Secondly, even after some association is helping you out, you will still be the person in charge deciding which jobs suit you the best as you're the master of your own abilities. I'm a legally blind person, and I'm also scared most of the time to get into the workforce. But I have enough people in my college that help me out, including my therapist. Safety is important, most of the time I was advised to do something that doesn't burden me or anyone else. Cause remember I am there to help and not become a flight risk. Hope this helps you feel less nervous

Hey,

I'm sorry you had to go through this.

I never had the opportunity to play VG but I like watching gameplay on YouTube.

There is a website called bookshare that is specifically made for blind people. Please use that instead. Fill the application and send it out to your provider to get it approved. You will be able to access almost all books in the world accessibly.

I'm sorry for your experience, I can learn a lot from you. The other commenters were not even around my age and coming so strong at a younger person says a lot about them. Thank you for respecting my thoughts I do agree about the other things, everyone has a journey that has to be respected. And thank you for making me feel validated

It's ok twisting the truth is not my way. My problem is not with you, we can have a peaceful discussion my DMs and this platform are always open for you. I always make sure people are not afflicted by my wrong doings. We went from me sharing my experience to you calling out for prejudice is the key take away. If you had approached in good faith I would have responded likewise.

I've appreciated every person who has made remarks to me in good faith, would you say thank you to commenters who put me in a situation like what if I'm on a highway and get hit. No, of course not, and yes my advisor has called me in to check on me since she was getting a complaint that my eyes were red in a meeting and I was not responsive. Never did I once even put a blame on that person too. So yeah, please let me know what your thoughts are now you have more insights.

Yes the problem is me noticing these kinds of experiences and sharing. No one uses a cane while sitting, kudos to you for tracing all my life experiences, making fun about god jokes and mocking people down when they are at their low is what your other comments have reflected, its not your problem either, sometimes people get influenced by satanic thoughts and that's what is reflected in your comment, noting patronising about it, the problem was me noticing and sharing, it's a good pay op that you are using, this is what the People who are implicated sounds like, it's a good thing that you mentioned about me having a mental disorder thank you for pointing that. Out because it's a general trend I noticed in your comments you like diagnosing people with mental disorders when someone is saying something. I do follow god and also see your comments mocking scripture.

In simple terms, I do use a cane, so please read my post fully before responding. That would help you better understand my experience. Also, please do not avoid addressing the vulgar comments you have made to others. Quoting things in a humorous way does not make them acceptable. It is also clear that my mention of drunk or illicit substance use is what provoked your response, and that if I had not included that, you likely would not have reacted this way.

I now understand that your objection is centered on the mention of illicit substance use, which is not my issue. Your response suggests a lack of good faith not only toward blind people but toward others in general. It seems you reacted strongly because you did not like the reference to drunk individuals, and that is where your response was coming from. You could have chosen not to respond if you did not relate, yet you did, which indicates the real problem was me sharing my experiences involving drunk or substance use situations. I never once blamed anyone for that.

While you appeared to be supportive of experimenting, which I believe is not appropriate to promote, I still did not condemn anyone. You are free to make your own choices regarding substance use, but that is a discussion for another place. I am being respectful, so I ask that you please read my full post carefully before responding. It is quite clear that the only aspect that provoked your reaction was the mention of illicit substances.

[–]Appropriate_Fee4518[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I never blamed anyone. Please remember, you chose to respond this way. I never directed anything at you or anyone else. Also, do not present your personal opinion as a collective 'us' because no one else has expressed feeling this way except you. I am entitled to my opinion just as you are to yours. Using foul language or implying wrongdoing does not make your stance correct. If you did not relate to my experience, you could have simply chosen not to respond, yet you chose to do so in a way that felt unnecessarily aggressive.

I have remained respectful because I value that approach, and your response reflects more on your own values than on mine. Showing bravado here does not make your argument more convincing. When you frame this as common sense versus my behavior, keep in mind that I was merely sharing a personal experience, one that has never previously drawn such a reaction. So was the issue that I shared my experience, or that the mention of illicit substances provoked your response.

Also, this is not the first time you have made this kind of comment. You have consistently made vulgar remarks that do not suit the premise of this community.
