Disability is a supervening factor. It affects not only bargaining power, but all facets of life.
Let the deniers deny that endlessly to boast their self confidence. For Instance, my son is celebrating his eighth birthday today and I find myself highly restricted to do anything significant for the occasion, while my wife is busy arranging and planning without blaming me. सादर / With thanks & Regards राजेश आसुदानी Rajesh Asudani सहायक महाप्रबन्धक AGM बाजार आसूचना ईकाई MIU भारतीय रिजर्व बैंक Reserve Bank of India नागपुर Nagpur 0712 2806846 President VIBEWA Co-Moderator VIB-India President DARE-Disability Advocacy, Research and Education A-pilll = Action coupled with Positivity, Interest, Love, Logic and laughter -----Original Message----- From: AccessIndia [mailto:accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in] On Behalf Of turab chimthanawala Sent: 14 November 2019 18:04 To: accessindia Subject: [AI] Bargaining power being limited by disability Hi all, While I have come a long way in terms of acceptance and independenb operation with disability, a couple of days back as I was upset with my mother for calling out out my domestic help for a filthy kitchen (out of a fear that she might not come to work the following day). I experienced a curb on my bargaining power principally owing to disability. I have experienced this feeling on several occasions in the past as well : unable to confront Uber drivers for talking on the phone while driving, once overpaying a Rickshaw as he dropped me despite my destination being obstensibly out of his way, daily hesitating to check office clerks for gosipping loudly near my seat and many more. While the general answer to this, is greater confidence and independence, I believe this too has its own limitations... While Mumbai has been extremely kind and helpful enabling independent living for over a year, there are occasions where I struggle to call out mistreatment/ injustice fearing the repurcussions. Eagerly await insights.
