DeafDigest Mid-Week edition - November 1, 2021 -- these tired and exhausted interpreters Many interpreters get tired and exhausted from a long and hard day interpreting. As a result, when they come home they do not want to talk to anyone else!   -- an incident with credit card processing machine DeafDigest editor went to a store and purchased something that he used his credit card. As a frequent customer, the store clerks know him and of his deafness. For some mysterious reason that the panicked store clerks could not explain, the minimum credit card was raised to $50.00. It was too late - the purchase was accepted by the machine despite falling below the minimum credit card limit. It didn't help that they pulled the editor's hand away from the machine. One of the clerks wrote down on a piece of paper - minimum purchase now $50.00. As a result, not wanting future incidents, DeafDigest editor stopped going to that store!   -- sign language among deaf astronauts The Zero Gravity Corporation, which is conducting space flights by non-NASA astronauts, has made study of sign language a priority while floating around in zero gravity space.   Deaf jobs - latest update http://deafdigest.com/category/jobs/ 10/31/21 Blue and Gold editions & sub options at: http://deafdigest.com/newsletters/
