There are always job around and I've thought that would be a good way to allow the employed to get back into work quicker.
Thank you
Not nice is it  I'm only powering through it because I have family/friends on my side I can vent to and get support from. Hopefully I will get off it soon though!
I agree there are some nice people at the jobcentre, I spoke to a lovely Employment Advisor last week and she did try to help me with some things. Agree with the power trip thing, I've heard some horror stories of treatments people have had. Some staff seem to think they can do what they want.
That's very true! Sadly it will never change either. As much as they could tailor support for each individual the government is not willing to invest in that, or push up the number of staff required to do that. |
I'm sure you will find a job soon. Just try to stay positive.
