Of late, I am facing a strange problem with this application. It reads out each and every character as I type into an email message. But does not read the message line by line when used with up/down arrows. So, I find it difficult to figure out the words I have typed into each line. Please note that I am encountering this issue only while composing email messages and not while typing into a document. Therefore, I am not sure if it is an issue to do with the gmail settings.

Re: [AI] Work attitute
Thank you Harish and I totally agree with you. To add, we should also realize that problems exist for everywhere and for everyone, not just to people with disabilities. While there are issues, there would be a solution either ready or a work around. We should take ownership and bring-in solutions.

She is conducting on the job training in IT enabled services. She expressed her displeasure with some of the blind folks carry. In the one one hand we seek equal treatment and when it comes to work, we expect relaxations. If we don't give our full commitment to work, maintain discipline, punctuality then, days ahead, we will have difficult times. Things have become much better these days, and I can safely say, the reason for the positive change is a result of great percieverence from many folks all over. It doesn't take much time to change direction. If such negative thoughts become prevalent, soon we will end up with this negative mind set. We have no one else to blame for it. Trust, it is no joke banging your head into an invincible wall. We have experienced it in the past and don't wish the youngsters don't land in that situation. Friends, whenever there is an enabling and supporting work place, there is no reason why we cannot put our dedicated work. There is in fact much happiness in a job well done. It takes a lot of efforts, money and time to train anyone. At the end of it if one fails to capitalise it then obviously it will result in unhappiness. There is no dearth of able bodied persons in our country and I fail to digest, how we can afford to be so complacent about it. Friends, it is something that we should contemplate on this with full earnestness and this would well be a wake up call.
