Says the person who has not done decades of fine manual labor, heavy lifting, with a family history of arthritis and injured fingers messed up by incompetent ER idiots.
I don't get it when people mock or "I don't see why others" - stop trying to make the population as created in your own image. Some people have stiff joints, shorter fingers than you do, have worn fingers out with years of hard work as mechanics, farmers, repair people.
This is exactly why I had an intense legal battle with the government and my employer over ADA stuff even though that employer was created to help people who had disabilities.
If some had their way, there'd be no ramps, no power steering, no walkers for the elderly - hey, stand up grandma, what's wrong with you - I don't get it - I can stand up perfectly.
My father worked his ass off in a factory - so much manual labor over decades of work that he literally wore the tendons out in his hands - a couple of them snapped - and I suppose you'd mock him for not being able to reach those cables as easily as a person as you being perfect can - so no one should own a JT unless they can prove they can disconnect those cables in 3 seconds.
I don't understand why some people have to make fun of or worry about others who can't do the same things as easily. That's what I don't understand.
