Best jobs for the deaf…
By Longster | Posted in News | Jan.14, 2009 | 1 CommentNetSignNews claims one of the best employments for the deaf is Information Technology. Their source was Monster.com that reported 41% increased demands for IT staff such as software developer, systems engineering, database and so on. The second best job is accountant due to amount of demands not only in the U.S., but worldwide too. The difference between these jobs is the level of education. Most fields related to Information Technology aren’t limited to a college degree, but can be done through self taught, certified training and/or experiences. However, most accountants do require a college degree. So by their logic, IT dept would most likely have a better opportunity for the deaf. They didn’t have much statistics to back their claim, but I do think it’s somewhat plausible. For those of you who haven’t decided on a career or going through a career change, IT or accountant would be a safe bet. Despite what NetSignNews said, I’d take it with a grain of salt. If you don’t agree what’s been said, then what are the best jobs for the deaf?

Deaf Restaurant Manager
By Longster | Posted in News | Dec.18, 2008 | 1 CommentDeafNation has a video about Nancy Watson who happens to be a restaurant manager. She works at Kona Grill in Illinois which is a very nice restaurant that serves Japanese food. What’s really interesting is how she seized the opportunity and the way she handled everyday situation. Restaurants are pretty much everywhere and there are no sign of shortage. If your goal is to be a manager at a restaurant then head over to DeafNation and see how she did it.
Defining professionalism…
By Longster | Posted in Blogs | Dec.16, 2008 | 9 CommentsA few years ago, there were articles floating around about removing the word “Professional” in DPHH. I thought it would be a good opportunity to bring this topic back and express my views. Sometime in 2004 or 2005, a guy sent me email suggesting that I follow the same path that Dallas/Forth Worth took. Before reading my correspondent, I renamed this person to John Doe for his sake of privacy. I’ve also took out the excessive info to get the point.

Upgrading site…
By Longster | Posted in Features | Dec.13, 2008 | Leave a CommentPlease bear with us while we upgrade this new site. The technology behind the previous design had not only made it difficult to maintain, but prevented any room to expand. The fundamental of DPHHH will remain the same as we have always done. However, there will be additional features that would enable us to communicate and network effectively among deaf community in Houston and possibly other cities as well.
