The Internet as My Workplace

This is now my new workplace; where I can be as comfortable as can be. I don't have to tell anyone that I am blind, that I am unable to see. I can play in an environment on an equal footing. No one is going to penalize me if I am unable to see. That is, no one is going to feel uncomfortable if I am blind.

I don't even have to tell anyone about my blindness. My clients are satisfied to know that I can fulfill their requirements. I work with clients from all over the world. They correspond with me either by email or by phone. There is no need to tell. The Internet as a workplace is so different and so much more fun to work in and why? Because I can be me.

I set my own parameters. I set my own hours and my own limits and I dictate which jobs I work on and which I reject. I do not have to make excuses to anyone. I don't have to worry about attitude barriers. I do not have to be concerned about what the mainstream world thinks. As long as I can perform my duties and fulfill my end of the bargain; no one really cares if I am blind.

I'm Donna J. Jodhan your friendly accessibility advocate wishing you a terrific day and urging you to go out there and tell others how blind persons interact with their clients through the Internet. Visit me at www.sterlingcreations.ca to learn more.
