Re: on the dole.
I have signed on only twice, first time was to maintain stamp no money paid out and i was working within the week, second time received my money and after visiting the Jobcenter and being interviewed by a snotty clone i deposited said money in her lap advising where she should place it for safekeping. They have never been good places to help aid folks back into work, but im astonished to read the amount of cash some are able to get, i did not find this the norm. However nor do i begrudge folks this aid, most will have paid contributions and will be entitled to help when they are in need, as for those who have not, surely its why we contribute as taxpayers.Re: on the dole.
As I wanted to leave school at the age of 15 my parents said if I did I would have to get an apprenticeship. So my first idea was a trip to the youth employment office as it used to be known by.Re: on the dole.

Re: on the dole.
I didnt see the programme mentioned but Id like to know what benefits this man was getting . Im fed up with television making it seem like you get huge benefits while not working,it simply isnt true,this man must have been eligible for more than one benefit i.e child benefit [ given to all parents working or not ] housing benefit [ again given to all on low income , working or not ]. I know people who have applied for benefits for various reasons and its d****d hard, Two hard working young men I knew tried hard to get work, signing on unemployed,sent after several jobs,sent on courses, but still unable to be given a regular job. In the end one came off jobs seeker allowance, claiming nothing , doing any odd job he can, the other worked as a volunteer at an animal rescue home for months [ again claiming no benefit] before finally being taken on as employed by the centre My niece was ill for a while couldnt work so was able to claim free prescription charges, but she failed to remember when it ran out ,and forgot to renew it, no one wrote to remind her,so she continued to claim, then got £150 fine for claiming when she wast covered.So Please dont believe everything you see /hear about benefit claimersRe: on the dole.
Re: on the dole.
If we watch those TV programmes, about Benefit Claimants, it's fairly easy to come to the conclusion that they're all money grabbing wasters who have 15 kids (in order to get the maximum pay-out & bigger houses) .Thread Tools | |
