Public Transit Stories: Tea Time Chat with Colleen

As a blind person, I've used public transit a lot, and I've had a lot of... strange... interactions. Join me for another Tea Time Chat while I share a few stories about how NOT to treat blind people. Warning for some offensive situations, because that's life.

That was hilarious. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you! I have so many other stories let me know if you have any requests. :-)

Great to have another video from you Colleen. I love your story time. Please do more in the future. Also, could you make some about your public transit interactions when you have had Joplin. Your voice impressions were hysterical. I’m sure that man thought he was helping you by taking you to the elevator but it was probably really scary to be grabbed from behind like that, especially by a man, and then forced to walk along with him.

[@colleenconnor8320]

Yes, I should definitely contrast that with some of the stories I’ve had with Joplin. As you can imagine it mostly involves people paying too much attention to her and not enough attention to what I’m saying. Thanks for your patience during quarantine, I hope to have more videos soon :-)

[@asecretcourtofcrowsandcloc4084]

That makes total sense. But they would be so focused on her they ignored you. I mean it doesn’t make sense but it’s whatever expect from speaking with other service dog handler. Can’t wait to hear another story time video from you and hope you’re staying safe

Great stories! I am a fellow Seeing Eye grad, and I enjoy your videos. Ollie sends tail wags to Joplin.

So great to hear from you! Lots of tail wags and hopefully we will be able to properly work the dogs soon. Let me know if you have any requests. Thanks for listening! ❤️🦮
