I see so many sharp blind people with no jobs, and some real not-so-bright sighted people attempting to do something they have no training for. I just worked on a document that had so many typos. I spent more time correcting typing errors than really the document. Luckily, I had a friend help me with it, but it does confirm there definitely is discrimination out there. Hdy, do you know the way to San Jose?
