What jobs are available for someone with a above the knee amputation, in a wheelchair and on disability?
Not looking to go beyond allowable salary restrictions imposed by SSI Disability. Just looking to occupy some time. #disability #advice #hiringnews #workfromhome

I worked part-time as a package Handler, at a company while I was on SSI Disability a few years ago, and everything was fine until my Ops Manager convinced me to go full-time, and I was making so much money that Social Security cut my check off, but I was still technically disabled and received Medicaid, and in retrospect I shouldn't have, but I asked Social Security to take me off, and as soon as I did I felt like I was muscled out of my job. Now I have medical bills out of the Wazoo, and it seems like nobody wants to hire me but I work hard. Do you think I should omit my Disability on future applications cause I don't know what to do anymore?

How would you answer this interview questions: "What kind of manager helps you do your best work?"

I want to be a manager It stands beside their employees, who's willing to do the same work if needed, who is empathetic to personal needs, can also stand as a guide and leader for their crew or their team. I want to be open and honest. And I want to manager who can do the same

As we welcome a new year, what are you feeling most—hope, pressure, excitement, or uncertainty?

Excitement, more focused on what needs to be accomplished.

Yes.

How would you answer this interview questions: "Describe a time you had to juggle multiple responsibilities"?

There was a time when my daughter had cheerleader practice at 2:30 and my boys had football practice 3:00 and I had to be the work at 4:00 so I had to get someone to pickup my daughter and my boys because I couldn’t leave work ,work was the most importantly in our life so losing my job was a no no I had to make arrangements for them to be taken care of while I worked.

When I worked for ADT Security, we had a person out on medical, but she did not want anyone to handle her position while she was out but me, so I had her job to do which was scheduling 30 tech for Residential and Small Business installations, so I had my job of Warehouse, ordering and depleting inventory from Tech jobs, so It all how you manage your day, the first think was that I had to get the tech out the door then find the paperwork for the next day's jobs and make sure all the part were either on the tech truck or in the warehouse received. Enter all my orders that needed ordered, then call all the customer and verify their installation for the next day or reschedule. On top of that I also entered Payroll for all the employees. So you have to work quickly and accurately and manage your time effectively.

What’s something you’re proud of surviving at work in 2025?

Successfully working from home (with my pups)!

In 2024, I was most proud of the accomplishments of providing updated changes at the Louisiana Home & Foreign Missions Baptist Convention. Creating procedures to accomplish a smoother transition for publishing the conventions' program booklet.

How would you answer this interview questions: "Describe a time you had to work with someone very different from you"?

Once as a new employee to a well established company, a very young employee gave me attitude. I simply asked my manager if I could use a private office and meet with her. This was her first full time job, and I had years more experience. Permission was granted, we discussed our own experiences and responsibilities. In under 15 minutes, we ironed out some of the misconceptions and worked well together for seven years.

I was in a situation where I had to work with people that had dyslexia, short term memories, talk to themselves, etc. Not having these problems, I tried to help these people as best I could and tried to be as kind and helpful as I could

How do you handle it when someone tries to pull you into taking sides at work?

Stay neutral. Don't take sides.

A lot of people, and no, it's not only the young, have what's called "Main Character Syndrome."
