Millie the Mechanic – Character Insight
Millie the Mechanic is the first female character in the series I am doing about the different trades/professions we have in Canada.
I chose the trade of a mechanic for Millie because I don’t want my female characters in this series to have traditional female jobs. Females in Canada today have a lot of choices in the careers they choose.
Millie will face some issues with some of the clients in the garage but she will handle each situation she faces like a pro. Each client she wins over, will be a victory for her and also for any other female that would like to pursue this career path.
