[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP also doesn't sound like she has anything else to offer these "villagers". Not work contacts or networking opportunities...so what's in it for them?[/quote] what makes you assume this???? One can be super successful at their job while suffering from health issues. Check your ableism.[/quote] WTF are you talking about? [/quote] I'm referring to the post that assumed OP did not have any professional contacts to benefit others in "the village". That is problematic for a variety of reasons, including someone with health issues won't be "helpful for other people's professional networking". [/quote] I'm saying like it is. OP does things like bake cookies and planning showers but these aren't going to sway people to meet her needs when she wants them. The real benefits are in whether OP can help them in tangible ways, like networking etc.[/quote]
