This one really hit close to home for me. My Dad had an accident as a young child that left him with a TBI, which led to him not being able to read. He was a damn hard worker though! He learned hands on what to do at the many different jobs he had, and he took things so seriously on getting the job done right. When he left a job at a casino where he replaced lightbulbs, the casino had to hire a couple more people to do the same job that my Dad did all on his own. He sure taught me how to be a hard worker, and that you can be a hard worker no matter your circumstances! When he worked a janitorial job, he taught a new hire how to do things right, no taking shortcuts. Later on that new hire told my Mom and I that he was so glad that my Dad trained him and that he trained him well.

Your Dad was the kind of employee every company would LOVE to have. Hard working, dedicated, loves to help others, and he refused to be a victim of his circumstances. A lot of people would say "Oh, I have a TBI - I have to go on disability payments. I can't work". And they would spend their lives living off of taxpayer's money. Your Dad wasn't going to let that happen - he knew he could work to support his family, and he knew that was the right thing to do. If I owned a company, I would hire someone like him in a minute! I'm sorry for your family that he's gone now. He passed on a great legacy to you and your siblings by being the kind of person he was. You must miss him very much. 💐🙏

This is a true story. I lived beside I should say my best friend, he was an elderly man who taught me more than 13 years of school. His wife passed when their children were really young, and this man worked for 50 years at the same plant and was never late or never missed a day of work bc his children depended on him. One son was mentally challenged, but my friend still never gave up. When he retired, he received an award for 50 years that he hung so proudly on his wall. I would go visit him every day and he would have all his letters and mail for me to read to him. One thing I noticed is every morning like clock work he would be reading his bible and spending time with God in prayer and true intimacy 🙌 I often wondered how he was able to read his bible but couldn't read anything else. I know that I know God made a way for him. I miss him so much and our friendship 😢 I know he's resting in the arms of Jesus now. Rip Mr. Guthrie, for I know I will see you again. ❤️ 🫶🙏

I’m one of these people, I couldn’t read until I was 25 years old! I was embarrassed about it, then something wonderful happened. I was on Dateline for illiteracy with 3 other people, and it took 8 months to film. They also gave a tutor, to learn. I can understand the pain others feel, since I was one. But I’m grateful I did the show, to help others. Now I can read, but I do have dyslexia. But one good thing is I did get my G.E.D! But because I didn’t get much of an education, it does limit my ability to go get a good job. I do work, even when I couldn’t read. Just limited.

my grandfather on my dad side was born in Mexico, and his father my great grandfather left him and his wife, including his other children so my grandfather had to quit school in the second grade so he can go to work to support his family. So when it comes to rude people like that saying oh, it’s pretty pathetic that he doesn’t know how to read. It really just pisses me off. because you don’t really know what a person is going through even in his past we as humans have to do better, we have to help each other out.
