40. What are your job skills, if that is ok to ask? You should not have to endure such shallow
Fri Apr 3, 2015, 05:22 PM
Apr 2015

people who do not appreciate you, but there are enough of them in the world, unfortunately.

You seem to be suggesting you are not hired because of your appearance but what were
the job placements? A job placement where you could work and I don't know what France
has to offer, where you can work for an organization that is focused on helping people
with disabilities, because you are being treated like one by your peers..from what you
have said. People who generally work for organizations for the betterment of the
disabled are generally more accepting of people in the first place and look past the
physical..which we all should but clearly we don't.

I think it would be something for you to consider, being around people who are not
only not shallow, but could employ you and give you support and friendship.

Best to you and good luck.
