medical questionnaire

I am filling out a questionnaire as part of our annual recert for the Emergency Response team.

Question #1 actually reads, and I quote:
"Can you read? (circle one) Yes No"

Now I ask you.... WTF

Quite simple, if you cant read then someone else is reading it for you.

There is a lot of stuff worth doing but then there is a lot of stuff worth doing instead.

Makes sense... It never occurs to me that someone can not read.

got to love the America's with Disabilities Act... a good intentioned law that has gone way beyond the original intentions

Sorry I guess I missed the core of the post, better luck next time.

I worked with someone who I would consider to be "functionally illiterate" for many years. We worked at a bank, she'd been there years before I started there and I can only assume that she took that first job application home with her and had someone else complete it. Her reading and writing was maybe at a first grade level? It was kind of sad. They consolidated and relocated our department and we all got laid off. Out of my whole department, she was the only person I was worried about in terms of finding a new job.
