Your own communication choices

I was born with a mild hearing loss. I was raised oral but I prefer to sign. When I sign at work, I also voice the words. So, I can teach the constumers a few signs. If a person understands sign, there would be less stress on me with my speech.

I like the idea that you're willing to help others learn. :)

In general, do you find people are fairly receptive to that?
