So many jokes...so little time.

what? I can't hear you 😉

You mean you can still converse with others as long as they don't speak to your "bad side", right? This shouldn't cause any problems for most office jobs, so you can pretty much look into most jobs without worrying about your impairment causing you problems 🙂

Shouldn't be a problem in most cases.

Phone support. Then you wouldn't have to listen to the user whine.

I have one good ear of hearing and work in customer service. Get a boostable headset and you are good to go. Just make sure your coworkers know that you won't hear them if you are on the phone.

People with hearing impairment can do almost any job they choose. Offhand I can think of typist, clerk, data entry, mail room, warehouse, assembly, computer technician, guest room attendant (porter/maid/janitor), research assistant in a lab, certified nursing assistant/LPN/RN, x ray tech, medical assistant, social worker, bus driver, writer, graphic artist, mechanic, plumber, scientist, sonographer, webmaster... I could go on and on, I do this for a living pretty much 🙂

Customer service/tech support. You only need to hear in one ear for that since the earpiece works with only one ear! 🙂
