According to Definitely Filipino, the man whose name is Ramil Comendador worked as a janitor in Cantaduanes in Philippines. He knew full well that if he do nothing and continue staying in the province as a janitor, he will be making minimum salary for the rest of his life.
Desperate to break off the cycle of poverty, Ramil made a drastic decision which was to become a lawyer. In order to achieve his goal, Ramil enrolled at the Universidad de Manila in Metro Manila.
As he wasn’t born with a silver spoon in his mouth, Ramil took up a job as janitor at the headquarters of the Commission of Elections (COMELEC) to earn some pocket money.
Despite juggling between work, classes and family, Ramil still managed to provide care for his two children who are 4 and 8 years old respectively.
After successfully graduated from the law school, more challenges laid ahead for Ramil. During his bar exams in 2016, Ramil’s hand began shaking severely due to fatigue. This made writing almost impossible for him in the exam.
Despite all odds, Ramil made it and was able to join the crowd of 3,747 new lawyers who passed the 2016 bar exams in the country! And he passed the bar exams on his first attempt!Â
