I know this is not the same thing but is anyone else getting calls that start with an automated voice saying ” this is a free message. Please do not put the phone down”. I have had at least 6 such calls. Naturally, i simply put the phone down,.
This is not a reply to any particular post as i have my own political opinions and will keep them .
I would just like to make a point about benefits and the difficulty in coming off them and finding work, due to the anomally of the beneftits system.
If a person is claiming Job seekers allowance and takes work of 16 hours it is considered by they JSA to be full time work and their benefits stop. However, it is not possible to claim Working Tax Credit unless a person is working for 32 hours because the WTC regard 32 hours as full time.
In the current economical climate most firms seem to prefer to take on 16 hour workers. i have been told that this is because the “paperwork” involved for the employer is so much less . It may also be that , if an employer has 2 16 hour workers rather than one 32 hour worker there is more flexibility for cover for hols and illness etc.
Whatever the government are doing with benefits it would make a big difference to a persons abiltity to come off benefits and start work if the above anomally was addressed.

When my girlfriend cheated on me with the whole of the county rugby team, that made me a little cross lol
i`d have to say being kept waiting queing ect im like accurist you can set your watch by me so im really impatient when peoples are late its unforgivabubble, off with there heads!
oh and the ole chestnut people on buses with their iphone’s set to attention seeking loud!
I agree 100% about the waiting for ppl. I feel that if i can have the courtesy to be on time, so can other ppl. My ex sister in law was habituallylate by hours. The “joke” was that if u wanted her to be somewhere by 2 then tell her to be there by 11. I didnt find it amusing. I reckoned if everyone just started without her and didnt let her get away with it, she would start being on time!
O and i think the cheating might have ticked me off a bit :)
