Hi Barbara,
Not wishing to defend the RNIB in any way, but isn't that the trainer
herself that is at fault perhaps? OK, the RNIB should have kicked her sorry
ass, as it were, but I would have thought that was an individual thing. I
could employ someone, who never turned up. OK, if I didn't chase it up, it
is my fault as a company, but I am not sure that is entirely RNIB's fault.
Anyway, this is really off topic for Talks, RNIB bashing, I would have
thought.
All the best
Steve

I will tell you one story and then I promose no more bagging the RNIB!
I know someone in N.I. who was receiving some JAWS training from RNIB. For
several months the trainer just didn't show up on the days she was supposed
to. when she finally did show her face, her excuse was that she fell out
with her boyfriend and didn't feel like delivering the training!
I don't think I need to comment on that, says all that needs to be said
about RNIB and what they think of the people they are supposed to be
assisting.
