Yea, i can see problems today, Downing.
Paper and Pen to keep communication with Foreign peoples from store or resturant
BUT
it is not all.
Same thing happen with Relay and Deaf person who want to order foods to delivery or carry-out.
It happen to me too many time. In my mind, F@#k! i am so sick of people from resturant or store think that Relay is Selling something that they dont interested in or said "I never heard of Relay but No thank you and Bye" Ugh!
Once i was on Phone relay to order China foods and that asian or china woman speak Foreign Lanuage as Relay told me. She said will get someone to speak English, Pls Hold. So Young girl answered the phone so i ordered foods. I did make sure double check to see if she get my orders. So what happened was that driver bought the foods to my house and paid him. I check inside of Bag to see if they get right orders and paper that they Circle of Menu. Again! GEEZ they forget my favorite Crab Ragoons to bring. UGH! I called them and b!tch them out. They was sorry and forget to bring. So the driver bought it over and gave me Crab Ragoon.
Make me wonder why Foreign Owner from Resturant or Store dont understand Deaf people to keep communication with paper and pen? it is not hard to show body lanuage so they can see. But what about Foreign people themselves? English and Deaf people dont understand their lanuage, too. I just wish that BBB should suggest Foreign People attend to learn English as Second Lanuage and Learn about Deaf or Blindness which they always tend to communication with like Paper/Pen, Picture of Menu, and Brialle of Menu. That will be more fast service and smooth.
Also, Once i was football cheerleader with girls from WSD and we went to MSD (Minn) for football game. We went to McDonald's to order Breakfast and Every Employees know alot about Deaf. They are ready pass out of paper with Menu. All we do is circle of foods and drinks that we wanted to order. Employee will read it and order it up. That was so Cool! That was impressive to me that they know about deaf cuz it is very close to MSD. No wonder.
