Your sarcastic reply on my climate of fear tread
|
|
By:
OK
but just so you know, my political views cover a wide spectrum but the one consistant factor is that I have very little repect for the vast majority of politicians and Mrs Thatcher is certainly not an exception. |

Won't be any jobs sweeping the streets. That's council work. 100,000 council jobs to go, so extra competition for vacancies.

Anyone looking to employ someone in West Lothian give me a shout,honest and reliable.

Have any of you thought about setting up a home based business?
The times may be tough now, but they will improve, and you will be ready for the upturn. Don't waste your time looking for others to employ you. Train and employ yourself. Also read 'The Magic Of Thinking Big'. It is a old book aimed at sales-men in the USA, but a lot of the advice is good for most situations. |

why don't you move abroad
obviously nothing for you here |

Hearts - thought you were self employed?

I'm 44 and never been unemployed before,cant bring myself to go to the dole office
Sad but on bbc4 the last 4 weeks they have been showing "boys from the blackstuff". talk about ironic or what |

Didnt realise how bleak that program was...its painfully depressing to watch

Get down there sharpish. You've paid your taxes. When your savings run out, you'll wish you went sooner.
One piece of advice - they'll ask you how much in savings you have. Tell them your down to your last £200. You use to be allowed £3,000. Don't know what it is now. |

By:
wur I do not think I could sign on,I do not plan to stay unemployed and I know it is old fashioned but I do not want to take money for sitting on my arse.
I will try for another couple of weeks then do some voluntary work to keep my self-esteem until something comes up. |

Anyone who doesn't claim money they're entitled to is a mug
Brainwashed into thinking your not entitled |
|
By:

|
By:

Would you employ someone who was so wastefull? |

Get down to the broo and sign on mate and don`t be so bl**dy stupid. You`ve paid your taxes and are fully entitled to your benefit. With respect, you can`t live on self-esteem and at the end of the day you`ll have to sign on eventually.

I as my age implys am rather fortunate in that my mortgage is almost up,my wife brings in a wage we can live on albeit it is not a luxurious lifestyle by any means.
I will get a job,in my opinion by signing on I will resign myself to not getting a job something that to me is not a option. |
|
By:
I have health insurance, doesn't mean i am resigned to getting ill.
In all honesty if your that weak that by signing on you think you will be resigned to not getting a job, then your probably not a good prospect for a future employer Good luck with the job hunt though |
|
By:
If you sign on the opposite will happen. Going in there every week will make you even more determined to get a job.
|
|
By:
by signing on u get ur NI paid ,any breaks questions will be asked, long breaks and ur pension is shagged ,hth ..

I have a large telescope and spend my days looking for distant galaxies ,I also feed all the stray cats and dogs in the area ..

^^^ above poster spot on i was unemployed for 7 weeks and i only went in there to keep my NI going. When I told them what i had saved i got some strange looks.
|

By:
A1 I realise that you are a rather negative individual,I on the other hand prefer to be positive hence that at the age of 44 I have not had to ever seek employment.
As it stands I have been unemployed for only 3 weeks,ffs I have taken holidays abroad for more than that Trust me I am positive and will find employment. |

ps weak,if only you knew.
