Subject: Re: [AI] Reply to Ishita's mail regarding jobs for blind individuals - Re: my quriyocity are normelpeopleintrestedinmarryingblindpartners Ishita Dear, I have been reading mails from you since quite some time. Would like to share one simplle example, me and my brother,both happen to have little sight. I have put myself into a slowly moving career by not believing in myself and ended with a job with so called reservation and my younger brother with his determination and hardwork not only completed his B. Tech, MBA from IIM Ahmedabad but is placed with a Leading firm giving him a package of 20 lacs. It was never my fault , things and perceptions change with time and eye-opening experiences. I have had some excellent ones in last 6 months and I happen to be learning person now. Trust me, give yourself a chance, enjoy life , learn endlessly and work hard to keep living it. warmly Aditi On 7/4/14, ishita kapoor <ishitakapoor...@gmail.com> wrote: > I hate awe-inspiring talks which is not constructive in nature. > We visually impaired are getting jobs in government sectors mainly > thanks to reservation. > Though we are enough capable. > There may be few individuals who have got jobs in private sectors. > But such people can be counted by the tip of finger. > Only capability is not enough to perform all tasks. > Our offices and work profiles are 99 percent inaccessible for the blind. > If a person from private sector wants to employ a blind person he will > have to make his system up to the expectation for the blind > And which is not always easy or possible. > Only awareness can improve our circumstances > > > On 7/4/14, Preeti Monga <preeti.mo...@silver-linings.co.in> wrote: >> I know Avinash, it is very very sad.
