The Evening Before…

Hello everyone!

 

I am sorry for not blogging for a while.  Been extremely busy.  Thank you for your patience on waiting for my new blog.

Yesterday, I had a meeting at work for the updates and to improve the company’s progressive.  I guess that is one way of explaining it.  Anyways, as you all may have remembered, I am deaf and I wrote a blog about accessibility?  I am writing about it again because I got so frustrated yesterday.  I had no idea we had a meeting yesterday and I had told the person that any meetings we have I would need interpreters.  I thought the person had provided one so I didn’t think to ask beforehand.  Remember, I wasn’t told about the meeting until yesterday morning when I arrived at work.  I just feel like they aren’t listening to me enough.  ADA law requires any company to hire interpreters for any deaf employees.  I have told this person repeatedly that I need one.  I can do one on one just fine myself.  But with a crowd of people?  Nope.  I will be totally lost.

I just am not sure what I should do.  I want to fight for my rights and I am trying to figure out if it’s worth working for a company that clearly does not respect my need for accessibility.

Thank you for “listening” to my rant.  I will post something more positive next time, I promise!

Much Love,

Toni Ann
