I'm always concerned and dismayed when I encounter individuals who have the potential to do for themselves, but choose to take advantage of well meaning, but enabling behaviors from people around them.

I'm not sure of all I'll be able to come up with, but I intend to try to get some help with assisting those who need it with finding a seat after the trip to the buffet. I also intend to make sure that such assistance is offered, not forced and is offered and provided in a respectful and appropriate manner that does not conflict with our NFB philosophy. I hope this effort on my part is not taken as antithetical to our philosophy of independence. I just want to make sure that everyone has a chance to eat the dinner they paid for . Not everyone has had the same level of training or has acquired the same skill set. I hope all this makes sense.

>> This is good to know. I think one thing that we will need to do is have people who are helping to move the line forward. Perhaps from the ambassadors committee. This way we can make sure that everyone gets food.
