He wrote, “Hi, my name is Tod and I’m a mechanic student. This October, I need to work in a garage or workshop as an intern but I’m not a normal mechanic. This is because I only have half a body, so I wonder if anyone here would accept me? I would like to join a motorcycle repair garage if possible.”
He included a photo of himself dressed in his uniform and on a desk, and the post quickly went viral with more than 21,000 shares now. Netizens were inspired by this disabled man who was determined that he would live life as normally as possible, and wrote heartwarming messages for Chatree.
