PRETORIA-(MaraviPost)-Sad! An unemployment still hunting young people. Smangele Ngema aged has been struggling to find a job. Tired of relying on her gogo’s pension, she decided to start her own business.
Smangele from Tembisa washes blankets for a living and is unapologetic about it.
She told the publication life humbled and taught her to think out of the box.
“I can no longer sit around waiting to get a call or email for a job interview,” she said.
Smangele, a management assistant graduate, said she’s never had a stable job.
“The last time I worked was at a call centre in 2019 for six months. The contract was not renewed. I’ve since been wasting my grandmother’s money buying data to apply with no luck.”
She’s now given up on finding a job.
“I’ve been patient, but there are many of us sitting at home with qualifications and skills. I was willing to do any job just to get an income,” she said.
Smangele hopes and prays that her business grows into a bigger empire.
