Hello!
I did not become hoh untill I was 22 years old ( i am 27 now)...I went to school for my administrative assistant degree, and now I am an office manager. I do not recive any benefits from this job, and they pay is not great at all. I actually left this job once, but got fired from my other job for the sole fact I couldnt communicate well on the phone.
I would love to start a new job where I would not be afraid everytime the phone rings, etc. I am even thinking of going back to school, but I have no idea what for, since I am afraid my hearing loss will effect what I try to do.
I am trying to gather suggestions from individuals who are deaf or hoh on what jobs that they do....what they went to school for, ect.
