Hypothetically, if a colleague has repeatedly demonstrated the utter lack of reading comprehension skills (like pulling the same door labelled “push” for the hundredth time), what job could one suggest for them where this “disability” wouldn’t be detrimental?
School
Well that depends, what causes this difficulty in reading and how far does it extend? Is it dyslexia? Do they have issues memorizing things? Are they completely beyond learning a fixed action?
I guess it’s not about actually not being able to read, just either not caring to read or ignoring what’s written.
Hmm… Then CEO of Twitter? Oh wait nvm you said it should not be detrimental…
On a more serious note though, uhhh I guess this person would do better in a job revolving something they genuinely have an interest in. The stubbornness to ignore information they don’t find relevant will probably affect them negatively in the long run when it comes to dealing with criticism and learning from their mistakes but I guess they can keep trying things out until they find something that sticks. And for the love of fuck keep innocent workers out of their shenanigans 🙃
The example you’ve given is likely not a problem with reading comprehension but obliviousness. I read and understand things very well (I have to read and correct engineering drawings and schematics and implement them), but I simply don’t notice a lot of what goes on around me.
My suggestion for that is any job that doesn’t require safety, physical team labor, or security.
Yes, that’s my conclusion as well. What job doesn’t require any of these?
Cleaner… most probably…
Anything physical related and repetitive, so he learns the ropes by heart. Garbage truck man, that could also be an option… pr0n star 🤔 🤷 🤣?
Interesting that you don’t think those occupations require safety or physical labor. I’d hate to see how you clean, operate large equipment, or fuck if you’re gonna dismiss safety and labor in doing so.
Let’s see how you mix two basic chemicals when mixing cleaning supplies. Will probably very fun :)
Should I call the fire department in advance?
Escort.
Dishwasher, cleaner, cook in a smaller kitchen.
At least those a friend of mine did who came already illitterate from Afghanistan to Sweden and also didn’t learn to read and write in Sweden yet (despite being very good in speaking the swedish language after a couple of years.)
Shouldn’t a dishwasher or cook be able to read and follow instructions, like regarding water temperature, food safety, etc?
