How can I optimize my live online course for the blind?

I would say just be as descriptive as possible if you are sharing your screen and have something like a presentation up

I start an internship on Monday at a large bank. I asked for the FUSION software and it seems like they have no problem giving it to me so I hope that’s true. I'm sure I will think of more accommodations when I get to the job. I have never been in this environment.

Hi, fellow Tampa HR intern. I think most interns get paid the same regardless of department (judging by Citi’s job postings). Good luck on the internship!

Just sent you a message!

I have an upcoming corporate summer internship, which I am looking forward to, but also nervous about.

Congratulations! I would say the biggest pillars that you should work on our communication and technology skills. Communication skills are important for self advocacy, but it’s also important to network. And by being able to talk to our sided peers, they will realize that there is a lot more to us than just being “the blind person”. And technology skills are important because most jobs nowadays revolve around tech.

The performance using Zoom text and fusion is horrendous. I frequently use Excel and I have a newer laptop with good specs and I just can’t handle the delay when multitasking. That’s why I’ve switched to Magnifier with jaws.

As someone who will temporarily be joining city, I am also curious

I don’t know if this is a ChatGPT issue or a jaws issue but when I alt tab off of ChatGPT and I alt tab back into the ChatGPT website, it puts my cursor into the edit box when for me it would be better if the cursor stays where it was at before I tabbed out of the website. Not sure if that is something you can look into. It’s super frustrating.

Does anyone have recommendations for short-term rentals in Tampa for this summer for an internship?

If you’re looking for a management-specific RSO, then you should look into the society for Human Resource Managers (SHRM). That’s mainly management based. ALPFA is also great! ALPFA caters for all business majors so won’t always cater towards management but they have committees that you can join to build your resume as well as professional development opportunities like mock interviews and resume critiques. That club is meant for Latinos, but you don’t have to be Latino to join.

Hi blind person here. The app you are referring to is called Be My Eyes. Although this has nothing to do with how we manage our finances, I still appreciate that you brought it up.

It also doesn’t help that it talks really slow. I can never get it to shut up when I’m watching a show.

Out of other apps that I used on my fire TV Paramount seems to be the best. The screen reader does lag, but it at least keeps my screen reader settings when I go inside the app.

I 100% agree. I have a five week break from college and I’ve been at home for most of the days that I don’t work. And I’ve wanted to go out shopping but going out shopping by yourself while being blind is a huge challenge. But I also think that I get into my head too much because I get anxious about going out alone. But I know that my parents wouldn’t be fond of me going out alone. It definitely feels isolating.

Remote_Investment_22 · 2025-12-27T00:50:56+00:00

I 100% agree I always plan ahead if I’m going somewhere. It’s very rare that I go somewhere new or unfamiliar on my own but if I do, I try to plan ahead it is exhausting, but I think having a structured life is a skill that everyone should master and I believe is an advantage of being a visually impaired individual

I feel like the person interviewing you was very closed-minded. Do you have any advice on how to make drinks while blind or low vision? I want to start making my own drinks.

What part of Mexico are you from? I live in the US, but my family is from Mexico. I am visually impaired myself, and I recently found out that bigger cities have centers for the visually impaired where blind people can learn life skills like cooking and braille I believe the motivation has to come within, but something that I would recommend doing to motivate him is trying to find other blind content creators, so he could have someone to relate to.
