omg some people seriously are so retarded! Most hearing people understand about interpreters within the first sentence or two.

@purplewowies hahaha I know!!

Lawyer: Why can't they hear speech?
Me: *FACEPALM*

I want to point out that you can hire an interpreter or work out scheduling to re-book same interpreter for the next meeting. I always book same interpreters for regular meetings for work or school. By using different interpreters everytime, it's hard beause the hearing people don't give enough content information when refering to past contexts.
If it is more than 90 min long, use two interpreters to avoid work-related repetitive injury to interpreters.

We go through this ALL THE TIME. Last year I had a court case... the interpreting agency (will not say who)... believe it or not, picked a NON-certified quote, unquote, "interpreter' who had to ASK what the sign for 'law', 'appeal', etc etc was.... It was so bad that I was literally SEETHING and believe me, the Judge just flipped through papers and didn't give a flip about any of what was going on... But being too ill, I simply did not and do not have enough energy to sue for violations.

is that sarah palin...? xD

The captioning is a bit off, it makes it a little bit disorientating.
Looks great though!

@seblesylver you picked the Obama character, huh? :D
Now you've got me curious... I am deaf and there is no subtitles on this video.
What are they saying? Or add subtitles? Youtube supports it. :)
Thanks.

@lifeofsynchronicity2 - Honestly I didn't notice the pin when I was choosing characters from the online program I used. I'll pay more attention next time I make a video.
