Thank you Deaflibrarian,
I want to tell them that the psychology test was not fair,
because people do lie when they take this test...
but if I want to tell the truth, I don't want them to judge
me for not being perfect.

Miss P why do you keep on complaining? If you are going to act this way on the job interview don't even try finding a job with that kind of attitude; You need an attitude abject, Because I know you won't get hire with an attitude like that. You already complaining about the routine test every application have one big deal, Just fill it out and stop complaining.

HAVE YOU RECEIVED ANY SPECIAL AWARDS OR RECOGNITION?: I may already be a winner of the Publishers Clearinghouse Sweepstakes.

DO YOU SMOKE? : Only when set on fire.

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN CONVICTED OF A FELONY?: Is "felony" sex with a cat? Because if it is . . . no.

I also don't like those "voluntary" forms that ask whether you are a person of colour, a person with a disability, a woman, etc. Believe me they file that information somewhere.

Good luck with your complaints! Let us know what happens.

If you got extreme patience, then u can go to DVR, they're slow to process and take forever to start looking for jobs. I would suggest u go to employment centers where they have job openings, or temporary agenies, either way. You can look at online classifieds from major newspaper companies, too. There's so many options than just applying online.

I am sure there are dozens and dozens of people on alldeaf.com who also are Deaf/deaf and employed.

Being deaf is not a sickness or disease, it is simply the fact you have lousy hearing. Waiting until deafness is "cured" is simply wrong and ignorant!

It sounds to me you're just lazy and have given up. Correct me if I am wrong.

Yep; You are correct, I don't like it when people think they are deaf and think that they shouldn't be working. I don't like that excuse coming from deaf people. I am deaf and employed. Thanks for defending me too...


Thanks Zesty and SpiceHD too

Thanks Zesty and SpiceHD too

It is a good thing... when my sister and everybody telling me
to go get a job... I would say,, okay sure, watch this...

I would go to Walmart and applied in front of them...
and then go... And wait by the phone...

And say, see nobody call me...

so my sister and everybody
would get off my back for awhile....

Applying for one job doesn't make that WalMart will give you a phone call, You would have to applied alot of places and then if You do not hear from them in a couple days go up to them again in person and talk to the manager and tell the manager that you applied here on this date, and that you need this job, and willing to do every job requirement. Don't get upset with them but just be nice and smile alot. It works. It did for me
