    Girl I’ve been legally blind since i was 12 years old (due to PXE)and my whole life I thought I couldn’t do anything😢. But after my Divorce I got my first actual job after being a stay at home mom for 15 years. I started as at the stock room because I thought it was the only thing I could do. Later I became a cashier which I thought I couldn’t because it was hard to see but I figured out a way to do it and now I’m the stock lead/management. My self esteem went way up and now I want more but i have no idea where to start. Thank god I ran into your video. I’ve always thought no one would understand my needs.

    I have Stargardt’s Disease. I am a sixth grade teacher, and I have to be honest and say it is difficult. The middle school age can be mean because they are immature. Still, much of it has been rewarding. This year I am able to teach online, and I’m loving it! I also have always loved writing so I hope to get info that one day.

    • @alishainc
      @alishainc  Před 3 lety +1

      Yes it is very difficult. I’ve worked at a middle school and my vision was much better then than it is now. Even then, they would make comments. Didn’t bother me because as a nutritionist (after school program) I was more concerned about them not cutting themselves lol but I can relate to how you feel especially since you’re an educator and how you feel impacts the class environment.
      Have you spoken to them about it before? They can be cruel but they can also be compassionate once you explain what’s happening to your retina. It’s good you’re working from home. Gives you a break from being exposed to their attitude

    I have Stargardt, I’m a visual artist and I have an online business on Etsy. I found it better to not disclose disability until I get the job. I think employers would rather not deal with the added “liability”. But that is interesting to hear that these 3 sectors are interested in hiring people with low vision.. Anyways, this is the first time coming across your channel and its nice to hear from someone with the same condition. You mentioned that you had a hard time accepting the diagnosis at first. I have an article on Huffington Post that spoke of my experience with this.

    Hello, many situations you've pointed out in this video, are things I currently struggle with, and before watching your video today, I was on the verge of giving up on living a life that would meet my standards. The thing I was contemplating, was settling for something less than I'm satisfied with, since I had convinced myself that accomplishing more wasn't going to be feesible. Not only has it been hard being legally blind, but getting other people to understand my limitations and stop holding me to the standards of someone fully sighted, have been equally as frustrating. I can't say "wow" enough. Thank you so much for creating this video and for your insight.

    I think the hardest thing about serving food or drinks in a restaurant would be trying not to knock into anyone and making sure stuff makes it to the tables. I haven't seen many blind people doing regular mundane jobs though ... Where are the blind casheers or cleaners etc? I know those are not interesting, but a lot of sighted people do these jobs either when they're starting out or in between better jobs.

I use my phone for magnification if i need to read a non electronic document, I have amazing co workers, who will also read things for me, also when it comes to modalities, once again I use my domed magnifier or phone, and all of my documentation is done by computer or Ipad. I find that when a patinet has an issue, i'm sort of at an advantage because i'll use my own struggles, experience to encourage them to get better. I find that sometimes i gain more respect from my patients that way.

    Hi Alecia B, my name is Emily and I am totally blind. All my life, I’ve wondered what jobs I can do. My dream really, is to be a DJ because I have a huge collection of Funk and Soul music that I’ve created for 30pluss years. It started with the love of radio and my brother’s cassette tapes. When I turnt 12 I flipped through the radio dial in the 80s and found my 92.5 and I never left. It played Funk and Soul and the station may have been sold, but I never left that station in my heart. I went from record store to record store after rent was payed and buggabooed buggabooed buggabooed the store people about do you have this or that. It’s still on with the collecting. When the internet came out, I couldn’t download right away because I didn’t know how to do it on Napster. 4shared I could do all day long and now, CZcams and ITunes. ITunes though, is about to lose a customer since I can’t transfer files onto my terrobiter hard drive anymore. My mobility skills have never been good so I take the MTS buss, or friends help when I wanna go out. Even with that MTS though, I know how to get some place on time. Although my mobility sucks, I have computer skills, on my own computer and my friend taught me how to use my IPhone so I’m good with Social Media. Somebody said I’d be a good blogger but I never knew how to start a blog and when I go to CZcams, sighted people directions and blind people directions are totally different. Also, that Jaws, when it comes to doing business, can be a pain in the ass. Another thing I don’t know how to do yet and I wanna learn, podcasting music like a DJ, not for the money, but for the opportunity to do it because I’ve loved Funk and Soul music since I was little and I’m 48 now. How many people go through their lives not having a job by this age? I feel like an alien from Mars when it comes to this. Anyway, if you have any suggestions, please let me know. Oh, I’ve went through stupid Voc Rehab and they gave me the run around. I became a Braille Tutor at one point in LA, but I had to go back to where I live because I couldn’t find any permanent living place in LA. I’m thinking now, we’ve come along way in 20something years, now with the internet, there must be something for us as blind people.

      @@alishainc Thanks so much Alecia. I’ll be putting my shows I’ve done so far on Soundcloud with my friend’s help really soon, like sometime this month. My other friend was giving me all kinds of advice but I’m not worried about a lot of stuff right now, I just wanna get those shows on Soundcloud and make some more. I’m basically, running my mouth and playing music. I’ve been collecting Funk and Soul music since I was 13 and I’m 49 now and still collecting. So, musically the show is gonna be off the hook. As far as my talk on the show, I think I need more practice.

    Would love to hear about the editing equipment. I am leaving a message from my from my daughter's account. She has recently become legally blind.. We started college as the diagnosis began. As her mom I need assistance. She is taking a class that will require her to learn Adobe Premiere. So it will help would to know how you access it.
    I love how you talking about purpose. This is something I mentioned just last week at her college. And YES reading now difficult and we have been using Kurzweil. Unfortunately, it isn't always able to read assignments and has glitches. Do you know of a better reader. Writing this morning because I have been up most of the night seeking help to ensure that she is educated.
    She has always been low vision but being legally is different. I am my daughter's biggest advocate. Help regarding accomodations, resources and just how to go about life

    I feel like it's not equality when they want to "fill their quota" on blind people or diverse people. I am still planning on getting my Master's of Education in Family and Cobsuner Sciences. Stargardts was just discovered in me last year and my vision had gotten worse this year but I don't want to give up my dream. I just don't know how to do anything as a blind person and how to promote myself in a job, despite my vision problems. You'd think it would be against the ADA to not hire someone because we need more equipment but not sure how that works. Thanks for the video!

    • @alishainc
      @alishainc  Před 3 lety

      True quality which is why I was questioning if affirmative action is the right freezing… And the alternative would be discrimination which honestly is happening right now and I’ve experienced it myself I know many people who have not been hired from the job because originally impaired. It is illegal, the company still do it so that’s why I wanted to mention the places that do want to feel sluts with people that have vision loss. I wrote ahead is not going to be easy I can’t lie but we have to find ways to make it easier for her selves and accommodate ourselves or companies will not work for companies are going to
      I hope that this journey strengthens and you find satisfaction in what you do. Just remember the hard times you experience and what you overcome will help the next blind person wanting to do the same thing 💙

      I think of quotas and affirmative action as a conscious counter to unconscious bias. If you look at the industry you work in, the schools your employees are coming out of, your own company... and you see a gap... and you know no one around you is an overt bigot... there is still something lacking, still something leaving people behind... Companies fill quotas, but they don't fill quotas with unqualified people. So fuck it, take the job and run.
