Hank, do you really like your job?

I have gotten some questions in the past 3 weeks from people that say, "Do you really like your job?"  Boy, do I ever like my job!  This is true because every day I am helping someone new.  I love this "work" because it is so much fun for me. 

In June, Herb and I will be doing an accessibility/DAD training seminar for the City of Phoenix, Sky Harbor International Airport management team.  This will be a 4-hour seminar.  I really like the teaches and the challenging questions from those attending.  After 4-hours, they will go away with a better understanding of the ADA, but there is no way that they will have our knowledge because we have been doing this for 18 years.

The ACCESS program that help the handicapped in wheelchairs get building ADA compliant is called "Watchdogs in Wheelchairs".  We don't expect you to know anything about building ADA compliance, that is our professional responsibility as architects that specialize in ADA compliance.  So you have the strongest team possible to help you get buildings ADA compliant.

Let's get started!  Our professional services are free to you, it's easy, it's simple and it's 100% effective.  I sign that building certification stating that the building is ADA compliant myself! But, you'll need to do your part first by following these 3 easy steps:
  1. Book an accessible room with 2 beds with a roll-in shower.
  2. Using a color digital camera, take 2-3 photos of the room, the roll-in shower, the lobby area and the public restrooms.
  3. Take 2-3 photos of the outside of the building including the accessible parking and overall photos of the building.
  4. Email the photos and a copy of your hotel bill to ACCESS at hfalstad@accessts.net.
ACCESS will review the photos and determine on whether there is "standing" to move forward with a case filing in the Federal Courts.  That's it.

As always, feel free to comment here or on our FB page at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Access-Technologies-Services-Inc/268659564730; or you can call (702) 649-7575 and ask either for me or Patricia; or just send me an email at hfalstad@accessts.net.  I look forward to hearing from you.

Hank
