    An Example of What Deaf Jobseekers Face

    Actually, that's the stuff that's more important than the call itself. When someone says, "go ahead", I like to reply, "Don't call me a "goat-head"! :)

    An Example of What Deaf Jobseekers Face

    The best relay conversations are the ones when the relay operator DOES NOT begin the call with, "Have YOU ever received a relay call before?..." Then spend a minute explaining the process, during which time they are hung up on. Duh! It sounds like a cold-call sale. They need to be our voice...

    Sign Movies

    I hated this movie 'cuz the voice interpreting Hurt! Completely unrealistic, unless you are hearing and like to hear yourself talk. It included ASL, but was definately not an ASL movie. Viewers who don't know sign could figure out what was going on from MM's acting. Just as Deaf had to...

    What do you do?

    You do what you can. Keep a closed fist and see if you can carry a mock-conversation. Don't forget your facial expressions! They become very important now! Steve

    Communication. Is it worthless?

    We now live in a "forwarding" and "cut-'n-paste" world! I hate it when people ask for your e-mail address to keep in touch and all they do is forward junk - jokes, virus warnings, urban legends, etc., etc. But, they never put their own thoughts down. If they don't take the time to write, I'm...

    About Time! VA Bill Sets Fine for Low-Riding Pants

    To me, there is a difference between low-rider pants that are made to fit below the waistline and that sh|t the kids today are wearing. They take a perfectly normal pant, double the size and use a belt to cinch it under their ass in back and up to their waist in front. They are easy spot...

    Which auto insurance company do you think is better?

    That's why they call it a vacation :) Go ahead and pay, then when you do find another insurance company, you can cancel your current and get a pro-rated refund. I just paid my State Farm when I switched and got a check back. Steve

    Vp-100

    A Sorenson rep hooked up a VP-100 in our home today. The very first call made was to demonstrate their VRS skills. We had to WAIT for a callback! HAHAHA! Go figure! The lens zoom is too far out. I had to sign HUGH LETTERS with both hands in the air for my callers to see! So, I swapped...

    CANADIANS: I invented a wireless relay service. Help me commercialize!

    Patent it! Deaflibrarian is correct. Get your invention, software, process, etc. patented in Canada, US, and Europe! Write yourself a patent disclosure including dates and other known prior art. I'd suggest you don't go into detail on the forums without getting this done first. Good...

    CANADIANS: I invented a wireless relay service. Help me commercialize!

    I wonder if it would help to talk with CSD at http://www.c-s-d.org? I'd like to see your program licensed by all of the major cell and landline carriers to distrubute to the Deaf and HOH. :thumb: Steve [I forwarded this link to a friend]
