Thank you Joey. It is very soul destroying, as someone who has worked ALL my life since leaving school, sometimes at two jobs to make the hours up.

It's also true, as soneone mentioned earlier, that the Government are now very tough on jobseekers and will actively stop peoples benefits if they think they are not doing enough to find work, or making excuses, being too picky etc. I don't consider any job "beneath me" however as I am office trained and have plenty of qualifications to support this then that is where I'm ideally looking. I'd happily consider retail work if I could get it, yet (as mentioned previously) actual direct retail experience is a must have, so although I'd be more than capable of doing the job, I would be unlikely to even get an interview. When the supermarkets are asking for NVQs in retail. They can afford to be very choosy, as there are so many unemployed. It's very much in favour of the employer.
