    No strings attached

    I have had before and considered it now. I have been in a few very serious relationships and want to just enjoy my life and date around without getting tied down. I am always honest about my actions in these situations. It is hard to do though, its so easy to fall into a relationship!

    questions about interpreter policy

    When I was working in crisis housing for DD adults I had a heck of a time getting into some meetings. We had to call around and see who would let me go. These clients are typically dangrous to themselves or others and are not allowed to be anywhere without me by their sides. It was frusturating...

    I just found out that my dad gets four 3D channels through Direct TV. Some of the program info shows CC and some does not. However even on the programs that say CC, no captions are showing up. These chanels are new to me so I will have to play with it some more to try and find a solution- I hope...

    Do your interpreter usually does this?

    Thats true, and if the kid is new to the program or has attention problems, or if im acting as a one-on-one, I adjust due to the situation. But in the majority of cases this is my outlook. The kids know that, and they pay attention to me.

    Do your interpreter usually does this?

    The terps here are in that position a lot. They are hired as interpereters/para educators so they fufill many duties. When I've stepped in for an absent terp ill admit to not following their job description to that extent. I will interperet what the teacher and students are saying for the...

    texting and 911

    As far as I know no systems exist at this point for texting 911. You can use relay, but it is time consuming. However any phone, even if on a data plan only, can call 911. The police are required to check on all 911 calls, and many will respond quickly if there is no voice on the other end as it...

    ITP - Associate Degree Programs

    If youre in an area with a high deaf population there is a chance you will use your ASL skills at least on a weekly basis. But keep in mind most Deaf people go into places planning to deal with hearing people so you may not even have the time to step in before things are taken care of. If you...

    Move to DC and work near Gallaudet, you would have daily interaction for sure there. Look into job shadowing an interpereter at an elementary school. If you like kids and want to use ASL daily its a wonderful position. Or see if you can get a job at a deaf school.

    ITP - Associate Degree Programs

    So, I'm confused... you want to use ASL daily but don't want to interperet? What about working as a terp in a school? Its a little less intimdating than being a terp in a medical or legal field... may I ask where your intrest in ASL/Deaf culture stems from?

    Soon the government check won't be in the mail

    It is good option for people who do not want a bank account. I just closed my Chase account due to far too many fees. I loved WAMU, hate Chase.
