Dear Melissa,

Welcome to the list.
There are many people here who will likely become your friends one day.
Believe it or not.
As for your situation.  What are you looking to do for employment.
Are you trying to become a medical transscribtionist?
If so, the NFB has a list for them and there are several on this list 
service.
Tell us more about yourself and what you want to do.
Networking is something that can help you find work and make some friends 
along the way.
I am a former Nuclear/Aerospace Materials Engineer, but now work in transit.
I have been blind since the age of 16 and got all of my degrees after 
becoming Blind.  I worked at allot of jobs in my life and almost all of them 
were after I was legally Blind.
I never had a problem with finding and getting or keeping a job until I gave 
up driving after doing so for over 20 years and being Blind all of the time.
It was lack of transportation that stopped me from working for nearly 19 
years.
That was how and why I became a transit advocate and worked to change it .
I did change it and it lead me to a new job as a Consumer Advocate for MV 
Transit.
I was hired to help them in a very tough start up her in Palm Beach County 
Florida.
I knew the disabilities and seniors communities.  I had forged good 
relationships with the County Commissioners.
I used what I knew to help MV fix what was wrong and now MV is the best 
service provider working for Palm Tran.
I look forward to talking to you and I will do what ever I can to help you 
become the person you want to be.

David Evans, NFBF
