Thank you for your service sir! I am in the army currently but get out in 3 weeks. (Cant' wait) I messed up my ankle jumping out of a plane 2 weeks ago. Over 30 jumps and the only injury I have was on the last jump. Can't wait to medicate for the pain. These 3 weeks are going to go so slow as Im counting down the days. tick...tick...tick

Able could possibly be used to state that he is still capable of leading a normal life his disability aside. Maybe he is stuck in a wheelchair, that makes a LOT of jobs unviable, but doesn't detract fro the fact that he cans till look after himself just fine etc? Who knows. I won't blame you for your statement, disabled yet able certainly would give reason t ask for a beter explanation :)

I myself run a kitchen, utter waste of time. My longer term plans are to start a barter based carpentry and glass business, i detest money in the form that it is in todays world. My goal is to remove money as the iddle man, which means i no longer pay tax and fund terrorism, but get all the same tuff that the money middleman would have provided :) Why make a garden bench to sell for money to buy groceries with when you can trade the bench for groceries direct :)

try it sometime. you'll understand. and seeing how its the weekend and raining everyday. not that easy when you go in with a wheelchair thats all dirty from the road to the interview. dont get me wrong im all for it i have orientation with voc rehab coming this week and anywhere else i can get, like i said before the road isnt that clean and if you ever seen a person in a wheelchair, not likely, your clothes dont look all that clean after you get down the block along with the chair. employers want clean workers. im a hard labor kind of person which also makes it harder because you do get looked at. "hes got to be kidding right?" again im all for it and will be trying soon. disability has been there for a year and already i see there is no future with it. its just alittle harder for people like me to get jobs. borrow one for a day and ride the road with one set of clothes and gloves and ask again.

I'm a Hi-Tec consultant,when I need real money (( X Pres. X V.P. bla bla million and billion dollar companies) I come in to companies, do an assement and start firing) The other job is medical MJ garden advisor when I'm off, most of the work is for people who are not able to get out much. The rest of the time I stay on my land and mind my own business.

I hear you bro, I build and design gardens for MJ clients who have mobility issues and even the smallest thing can be a big obstical, they have taught me to be more understanding and tollerant, not to mention all my problems are so fucking small compaired to theirs. Stay strong and you will mfind the right job. Just so you know I have done a lot of hiring and firing in my day, me be fired also and it can take a good 9 months to find the right job. The other thing about jobs is look around not at just what you know.
