[QUOTE="witzend, post: 183566, member: 99"] I would be very careful to avoid statements like "Sometimes". Their job is to keep people out of the system who don't belong there. "Sometimes" to them often means "with controls it can be done". I have muscular dystropy, and was turned down the first time I applied because I said I could sit for 3 - 4 hours. Well, if you can sit for three or four hours, you can work at a desk, right? No, I can sit in my recliner with pillows for propping and my feet up for three or four hours. [i]Not[/i] sit in a chair for three or four hours answering phones, filing, copying, and typing. Anyone who wants to pay me to sit in their recliner and read, watch tv, and doodle around on a laptop while I pile papers and junk all around me should give me a call! [/QUOTE]
