So I asked why the LLC doesn't have vending machines or concessions a few days ago. I was told that there are no vending machines because the University set aside the job of upkeep and restock of the vending machines for the blind. I initially thought that this was a good cause and so I was sated. Then I realized that there are no vending machines and therefore, no job for the blind... I found this confusing, so I asked why again, explaining my confusion. I was told that no one knew why this was. Why would the school set aside the job for the blind, then refuse to make the job available? And if the job is indeed available, why is the position not filled? I'm sure that there is some qualified blind individual who would glady meet the criteria... Does any of this make sense?

  1. Hmmm....it appears that they may just be telling you something just to make you go away. It sounds super crazy that they'd set aside a job...then not create the freaking job. It seems as if they had good intentions, but maybe somewhere their wires got crossed and there was a misunderstanding, hence no vending machines. Very strange.

  2. brandon, I agree with some of what sandra said. i feel like most workers on campus just say things to make you happy and go away, even if they are not true. i have had my own expieriences with this in wilder tower in the bursars office. the people in this campus need to be more understanding of the students.
