Comment on Back to School? Considerations to Reduce COVID-19 Risks by Alice Carroll

Alice Carroll — Tue, 21 Jul 2020 02:02:10 +0000

Thanks for pointing out that kids with cognitive disabilities are more prone to COVID-19. My child will be going back to school soon and I do trust the school in measures they will take in making sure the place is sanitized but I am still a bit worried nonetheless. Perhaps I should get a COVID-19 sanitation service once in a while in my own home just to make sure that my child is as safe as possible.

Comment on 5 Ways Mobility Scooters Can Help You by Darrien Hansen

I like that you explained how scooters give you more independence since you can go wherever you want without assistance. Ever since my grandmother has surgery on her knee, she has needed help moving around her home since she is unable to balance for long periods of time. Maybe a mobility scooter would allow her to move around without anyone’s help.

My grandma has a hard time walking as she is quite old. I think if we got her a scooter, it would help her out a lot. As you said here, you can use them indoors and out as her house is large enough to where it can be used indoors.

Comment on Disability Journalist Robert Kingett’s Chicago Tribune Interview by Dale Cruse

Robert, thank you for sharing your story. I’m a former CBSNews.com editor and will say the reason you didn’t get this job wasn’t because of your lack of cologne or your inexperience. It’s because you let your inexperience show. You’re in a room full of journalists and you’re trying to earn a job as a journalist. When the interviewer asks if you have any questions – the thing journalists get paid to always have – and you said no, you lost that interview right then. That was the moment. Always, always have questions ready. A favorite of mine is, “Why do *you* work here?” It’s simple but I always get a different answer. Good luck to you next time!

Hello, Belo,

I am the manager of the Minnesota Radio Talking Book Network. We are part of Minnesota’s State Services for the Blind, and as such, we are part of a larger network that assists blind people in finding jobs.

Our director recently saw a blog that you published in 2013 called Hiring Blind: The Misconceptions Facing America’s Visually Impaired Workforce. She asked me if I could make it into a podcast for our customers who are looking for work.

Physically, I can do that. But ethically, I want to ask your permission. You may have already turned it into a podcast. If you have, I would love to have the link. If you have not and would welcome us to do that, I will, of course, give you full attribution for the content and will refer people to your webpage.

Thank you for your work,
Stuart Holland, Manager
Minnesota Radio Talking Book Network
