Response to a request for Deaf Awareness at work

What does this Mean... Anybody????
In terms of the Deaf Awareness training I explained that I had something similar a few years ago and while I can see why you would want your colleagues to attend I'm not sure this is the best solution. All of your colleagues are aware of your hearing difficulties, but I do accept at times they may forget and this could appear to you that you are being omitted from the conversation. I think we agreed that this is not an intentional act by anyone but simply people forgetting and my view is, if these occasions do happen in the future a quiet word from yourself to the person(s) would yelled the best result. My view in this was reinforced when explained that at times you have to remind your friends outside work of your deafness.
