My name is David Dibetso, and I am 24 years old. My journey with Live Easy has transformed my life in ways I never imagined. It’s a story that began with humble beginnings and has led to where I am today, a Building Manager, all thanks to the opportunities and support I received from Live Easy.
Like many young South Africans, I have dreams and ambitions, but the reality of life meant that I needed to find work to support my family. I started as a security guard, a job that wasn’t glamorous but provided a steady income. I took pride in my work, knowing that I was was contributing every month to help pay the bills, as my single mother worked tirelessly as a cashier.
One day, I was informed that one of the owners of Live Easy wanted to meet with me.with me, as there was a building manager positon available. At that moment, I was filled with doubt and fear. How could I, a 23-year-old security guard, manage an entire building? I needed to gain experience in running a business or taking care of a property. Then I remembered the words of my late grandmother who always told me, “Nothing beats a prayer.” I prayed, and with faith, I walked into that interview room.
The interview turned out to be a success, and I was promoted from a security guard to a Building Manager. It was more than just a job change; it was a life-changing moment for me. The team at Live Easy believed in me, saw my potential, and entrusted me with the responsibility of managing a building. Today, I not only manage a property but also help other young adults find homes in the heart of the city, guiding them to become responsible and independent people.
I am eternally grateful to everyone at Live Easy who saw more in me than I saw in myself. This company is more than just a workplace; it’s a community where we uplift each other and create opportunities for growth. I am proud to be part of the Live Easy family and look forward to continuing my journey with this incredible company.
Thanks for contacting us, on the 15th Dec we close for the holidays and will re-open on the 3rd Jan 2022.
Thank you,
Live Easy Team
