My name is Klaas Mojela and I am 32 years old, I live in Kensington currently but I am actually from a little village called Mmametlhake in Hammanskraal, Mpumalanga.  I was raised by my grandparents because my mother was working in Johannesburg.  She normally only came home on month end and as we all know if you work far from your home it is not easy to come home often.  My mother is a single mom and I have a younger brother (Alfred Tshepo Mojela) one step brother on my father’s side and three step sisters.

I arrived in JHB in 1993 after I finished my matric.  I started working as a labour worker in a company called Three Degrees making furniture, and in 1994 I decided to change jobs and worked in a bottle store as a cashier then was later promoted to supervisor.  After a while I moved on to a company called Mining Information International, here I did many things including driving, compiling reports, data capturing and house-sitting when the owner went away on holiday.  I drove the kids around to school, swimming and to friends.  I like driving kids around because I love kids; I make sure they are always happy by telling them great jokes.

My hobbies and interests:  I love soccer (playing it and watching it), socializing with friends and helping others.

I came to Avo because of a man named David Rochekelly (Minfo).  For me the Avo family is a family of happiness, joy and love.  My challenge in life is to manage myself but I am enjoying it because of the teamwork in Avo.   During my spare time in Avo I am learning different types of jobs and how everybody is doing their jobs as well as getting to know the different Avos and what role they play in the company.

People always say that I am a man of many talents, why? Because I like doing as many different types of jobs as I can and I like learning how they are done.  Attending Kudos and Cock-ups was a first for me, this is the first time in my life I have ever attended such interesting meetings.  I also love my coaching sessions with Meryl, I now know that there are people out there who recognise my skills and abilities by just talking to me
Being in the family of Avo I am feel at home because of the warmth that is given, from the first day that I joined until today, and into the future.  Each person in Avo is important to me; these are my sisters, brothers and parents.  I am enjoying every day of my life at Avo for sure!
