Or, the testing could be done by sighted people, whereas the manufacturing is done by blind folks.

that would eliminate the run from a to z by the blind though would it not?

It says run by, so that would imply (to me, at least), that they're in charge, but not necessarily doing every single task. After all, Bill Gates "runs" Microsoft, but I doubt that he does the accounting or software coding.

Who works the counter?

Emplyee at checkout: "That will be $30 for 4 flood lights. How will you be paying for this today?"

Customer: "With cash... here's a 50." Really hands employee a single.

Employee: "$20 is your change. Here's your receipt. Thanks and have a nice day."

Ummm. How did the telephone burn her ear?

I worked at a major photo processing lab once upon a time. They had people who worked there sitting in a pitch black room loading film and paper into monster machines. I could never understand why they didn't hire blind people for that job.

Well now he said "Because she answered the phone".

Not the iron.
Not the anything hot.
The phone.
Don't make me psychotic.
I already hate the phone.
