'They accepted her and never asked more about her condition' She Has A Disability But This Fast Food Chain Still Accepted Her

Everyone will experience hardship, everyone has their own pain, struggle, sadness and that's only one side of the coin there is also love and happiness.

Just like the story of this girl who had a rough journey. A Facebook user named Kim shared the story of her younger sister who has a 'Mild Disability' but in Filipino terms, it's called 'Special Child'.

According to Kim, her sister went through a series of therapies when her sister was still a child and the Doctors didn't advise her parents to put her to a normal school due to the fact that she is not ready yet.

Her younger sister got a go signal that she can already socialize with normal people but she was bullied and Kim was always there to save her. Then Kim's younger sister finally got into college where she took Vocational course for 'Medical Assistance' and the people there accepted her sister.

Then they flew over to the U.S. and Kim tried to find a job for her sister they tried at Jollibee, Kim and her mother introduced her and explained her condition and then they got her into an interview. After three days she got the job, they accepted her and never asked more about her condition. They trained her, loved her, and made her feel welcome. Let's read Kim's full story.

Can I share something?

“Everyone has untold stories of pain and sadness that make them love and live a little differently than you do. Stop judging! Instead, try to understand.”

—> Kapatid ko nga pala, you might think that this is just a Normal picture of A girl working at Jollibee here in U.S, pero I’ll tell you why it is so special to me.

Tatlo kaming magkakapatid, I, being the eldest and her being second. Nung maliliit pa kami She always got my parents’ attention. Her being in Private school and me being in Public school, her having tutors and me being by myself with no help at all. She getting all the praises whenever she got As and I having no credit at all. Dami ako tanong nung bata ako, but as we grow up, dun ko naiintindihan lahat.

She had a Mild Disability, “Special child” sa term naten. She went thru series of therapies nung bata. Doctors didn’t advised my parents to put her to Normal school due to the fact that she is not ready yet. She is Gifted. She is very smart. She’s lovable, she’s a sweetheart.

When we got a yes from her doctor that she can already be socialised with normal people, We were so excited. All her life, I’m her only best friend. She then enrolled. I’m so excited that time in behalf of her and so was she. But at the same time I’m also afraid that not everyone will understand her. She then got bullied. Ako kasi nambabangas talaga ako mukha. Lalo na sa mga babangga sa kapatid ko. I guess I’m like that for a reason. I encouraged her to face her fears. “i got you” I said. May time pa na umabot na sa social media ang pambubully sakanya. And sa galit ko, inabangan ko sila sa kanto ng school. SABI ko ako Harapin nila at ngungudngod ko mukha nila sa gutter. Pero lahat nagpasundo sa mga magulang. Ni isa walang nakatingin saken.

I knew it, Sad to say pero sa Pilipinas ka tlga makakaramdam ng discrimination. DI KO NILALAHAT Pero masakit na kung sino pa yung mga kalahi mo, yun pa tatawa sayo.

Then finally she got into college. She took Vocational course for “Medical Assistance” and I am pleased with all the people and the school she went into. They accepted her and encouraged her. She was always present to their outings and eventhough nandto na kami as U.S, they are still calling her. Asking if she’s okay.

Long story short, When they got here in U.S, I just tried to get her a job. Something na will make her adjust fast. Though half of me was still undecided cause trabaho na to and Ibat ibang lahi na dito. She kept on asking me “ate kelan ako magwowork katulad mo?”, “ate pag sumuweldo ako tutulong ako”.

It got me in tears. I believe in her but not with thepeople that will surround her. Obviously Hindi lang din kame sa Pilipinas natatakot na baka hindi maintindihan, dito rin kaya inisip muna namin mabuti. Then here is this Jollibee at Seafood City here in Las Vegas. Naglakas loob kami ng mom ko to introduce her, we explained her condition and they got her into an interview. The next 3 days she got the job. They accepted her and never asked more about her condition. (Like as if wala silang nalaman na ganun) They trained her, love her and Made her feel welcome.

What’s my purpose? I’m not trying to advertise jollibee or what pero Im really impressed with how they don’t discriminate. We are really hoping for equal Oppurtunities to be malawakan. I hope kung saan man mareach nitong post ko na establishment or company will ATLEAST be open and give them chance.

Not trying to rant pero if this is in the Philippines? AGAIN, DI KO NILALAHAT, TUMIRA PO AKO SA PILIPINAS NG 20years, AWARE AKO SA KALAKARAN, Let’s face it, Truth hurts talaga pero baka kahit taga hugas pa hindi siya kukunin. 😞 masakit to na sabihin lalo na saaken na ate nya pero GANUN talaga eh. I have to say it for them to be heard. Kung makuha man, she will be a laughingstock. (GOD BLESS PARA SA IBANG COMPANY NA HINDI GANITO. SALUTE PO SAINYO)!! And for other instances marami nga na katulad ko lang tapos graduate pa, tengga lang sa bahay kasi most companies still pick the people who went from a famous university. Some will never hire you kasi “over-age” kana. Some fresh graduates Hindi mahihire kasi wala pa daw experience (PANO NGA MAGKAKAEXPERIENCE KUNG DI NIYO LAHAT TATANGGAPIN!? Kakagraduate nga lang eh🙄😪)

See how it works? It saddened me the fact that SOMETIMES these kind beautiful people are not welcome. Why? “WHYYYYYY???!”. And bakit sa Pilipinas pa!? Kung makalait pa wagas, GANUN ba kalaki ipapasweldo sayo para madeserve nila yon? Not trying to boast myself DAHIL nasa U.S kami. Laking tondo po ako, stayed at squatters area kaya Never po ako nagyabang. Pero nung nakarating ako dito, I had so many realisations.

On the other hand, I’ve seen progress sa atin, I really have to say it 💕 but sana magtuloy-tuloy and hopefully maging kalahatan na. It excites us the most, kaming pamilya nila. We just want somebody that will actually believe in them. ❤️

Im just proud being her ate. It almost made me cry seeing her happy serving people. The people that she thought will never accept her.

I know you can read this and I want you to know I’m the luckiest ate to have you. You are so strong and brave! And so beautifMiss-k Cuevas Cuevas! Darating ang araw na si ate ay magkakapamilya na ngayon tita kana pero tandaan mo na mahal na mhal kita and Ate will always be here!!

I just hope one day people with disabilities will be treated fair and square. Again, Di ako pinilit ng Jollibee to post this okay? Wala ho ako nakukuha dito kahit isang chicken joy haha pero again, With all the families that are dealing with this situation, believe in them. Encourage them. Give them all the time in world. Don’t rush, Don’t loose hope. They are special for a reason. And I’m hoping the best for everyone.🙂☺️
