Transcription [Stacey, who is the owner of Deafinitely Wanderlust Facebook page, is sitting inside a teahouse. She has a medium brunette hair and is wearing a red floral shirt with black pants.] Do you wonder where else in this world there are Deaf employees? We have it here too! [Cut to a series of short clips of Reaching Out Teahouse. At the end of the series, a Deaf brown-skinned Vietnamese male was saying:] Deaf people can do it. We, Deaf people, can! [Cut to a night scene of Hoi An with people on a small wooden boat. A logo of Deafinitely Wanderlust appeared among with the logos of Facebook, KZbin and Instagram. An animated title appeared “Reaching out Teahouse” while the white paint spreader behind the title]. [Cut to a Google map of Southeast Asia. A cursor clicked on Hoi An, zooming in to the map of Hoi An] [Cut to a Deaf Asian male, smiling and drinking the tea. On the top left, it says “Hoi An, Vietnam” with a Vietnamese flag] [Cut to Stacey who is sitting inside the teahouse.] Stacey: So you want to know where else there are in this world? We have one right here in Hoi An, Vietnam! [on the top left of the screen, a white animated circle appeared with a black text: “I signed Hoi An a little wrong. I forgot that there is one more part to it.”] The Deaf employees here mainly know Vietnamese Sign Language (VSL) Some can use gestures to communicate with you but with Hearing customers, they use gestures and they also use order sheet that customers can write down wait - [on the left side of the screen, a image of the Order sheet appeared for Hearing customers to write down their order.] This the one that you can use to order that's good! [Cut to a light-skinned Deaf Vietnamese female is wearing floral work attire.] Deaf female employee: We have 7 Deaf employees. All of us are only 7 people and they split into a different group for different work shift and there is one different manager for each shift One Deaf manager work for this group Another manager for a different group Each manager can see how hard working they are and stay with them during their shift Thank you. I am happy, thank you. [Cut to a series of short clips of Reaching Out Teahouse. During a clip where a Deaf female employee was interacting with a Hearing male: on the bottom right of the screen, a white painting square appeared with a black text: “I want to show you how they interact with them”] [Another clip: on the bottom right of the screen, a animated white arrow is pointing at the notepad, saying “Use this to order.” Next to the notepad, there are different notes: “ice,” “bill,” “cool water,” “whisper,” “hot water,” “questions,” and “thank you.”] [Cut to a Stacey who is sitting on the hair. She is looking up at the Deaf Vietnamese female employee is standing next to Stacey.] What do you recommend? Cold or hot tea? [on the top left of the screen, a white animated circle appeared with a black text: “I also want to show you how do I interact with a Deaf Vietnamese employee”] Deaf female employee: With the hot tea, it gives you warmth and the cold tea, you'd feel more refreshed so, both of them are really good. what would you like? Stacey: I'd like it cold, thank you, thank you. Deaf female employee: Thank you. Stacey: so did you see that? I really like seeing Deaf employees here because they're showing Hearing people that Deaf people can work too! Some Hearing people felt awkward and out of the place and may wonder how Deaf people work but you see, every day the Deaf employees are constantly showing that they are able to work That they can find ways to communicate they can use gestures or written communication it's absolutely not a problem. [Cut to a series of short clips of Reaching Out Teahouse.] Stacey: uhh.... I think...I should know what I am doing, right? I'm doing it wrong? [on the top left of the screen, a white animated circle appeared with a black text: “I was supposed to add the tea strainer.” with a sweaty smiling emoji] ahhhh!!! It's normal to make a mistake [on the top right, an animated title appeared “In the USA, they usually use tea bags or already do this for us.” while the white paint spreader behind the title]. I see. He (behind the camera) caught me on time wow. It's a strong taste of... green tea. okay, so the cookie. [on the top left of the screen, a white animated circle appeared with a black text: “I wanted to make sure that I eat the cookie the right way (wanting to save my pride, haha)”] what am I doing with the cookie? I can just eat it? oooh, this is a good cookie. a good-ass cookie. it's really good. okay, so I know it's really short explantation but The person who can explain about the work here who is the Deaf owner of this teahouse is no longer the owner. She sold it to someone else who is a Hearing person. that is what she was telling me when I talked to her. I don't know her reasons why she decided to do so She has her reasons as she has her own life. but it is still important to come here when you visit Hoi An! you can come here to support Deaf employees and every other Deaf people around the world too!
