The most infuriating thing to me is when a marketing executive, that has never used a screen reader a day in their life, fights me back on a comprehensive accessibility report they asked me to do.

The most infuriating thing to me is when a marketing executive, that has never used a screen reader a day in their life, fights me back on a comprehensive accessibility report they asked me to do. I provided logs. I provided video. I provided version numbers for everything. and they fight me and say we can’t reproduce anything in the video. Could you send over a screenshot of the NVDA settings you have, and also, have you tried tabbing? What version of NVDA are you using, as if they are the expert and I am not. I want to write back, downloading a screen reader for a day does not make you an expert. No sir, and never tell me to send a screenshot again, or I will triple my invoice. #Accessibility #Rant

@WeirdWriter Wait what? Have you tried tabbing? Ugh! I would be annoyed too. Ask them if they used the quick navigation keys. They will be all confused.

I did! I wish I could have recorded their answer, because I utterly can't stand it when I point out reproducible bugs *in the code* and you turn around and go, try tabbing LOL! Piss off, marketing people. And they still used NVDA with the mouse, so frustrating! @mcourcel
