    and i bet you hated telesales the most......

    there is a strange phenomenon caused by the introduction of the welfare state (what got churchill voted out after ww2)

    people now sit at home unemployed, when there are jobs elsewhere.

    before ww2, people would routinely travel where the work was, and if, for example, there was no work in glasgow, people moved to leicestershire to work in the coal mines, in the 20's & 30's welsh people moved to oxford to make cars.

    but now, people can be unemployed in their home town, when as little as 10 miles away, there are hundreds of jobs. we have a huge warehouse place called magna park, 10 miles down the road, and it is almost completely staffed by recent eu immigrants. they do big hours to earn the money, but the local long term unemployed don't want to travel to do the work.

    over the centuries, massive populations have migrated to where the work is, yet in the last 50 years, the uk, which i believe invented the dole, seems to have forgotten how to do it.

    i have all the respect in the world for anyone who will do whatever it takes to find a job, but none for someone who expects the job to find them

    Tbh the dole office dont care aslong as they see that you have written out 9 acts of searching for work a week. The 1st time i endend up on the dole they were helpfull and would give evelopes and stamps out even send you on a course to make yourself more employable now since cameron has taken over there is no such thing as a jobcentre its now called the department for work and pentions (look at the advisors name tag) and you have to use the online service as the job points are out of commision now so in on sence there are lazy idle w@nkers out there who cant be arsed but the goverment are maki g it harder aswell

    I'm the first one to moan about job shy lazy sods but after Jack moved to Brizzle Last June, I've struggled to even get interviews for jobs to go join him.

    Its easy to say, just apply for anything but we couldnt afford for me to work in a sweet shop or something so I cant go for any old job

    Ive only last week managed to get an interview for Avon & Somerset police for a Dispatcher position...the same job I've been doing for 8 years but for Dorset Police..and they are interviewing about 30 ish people and chances are I wont get it. mad. sad. Fcuking annoying.
