He's got a job on his own back and nothing to do with A4e who did nothing and left people sitting there in a room for 6 hours a day.
*sigh*
Arts and crafts :eek: how does that train you to find a job?
and the recruiter, the stubble, the hair, the earring. :eek:0 -

LOL. No, visiting/staying with family ... who have one TV and they decide what is on the telly .... the strange thing is it's ALWAYS The Bill... Does The Bill always run? It always seems to be on here.maximummewer wrote: »I know times are hard pn but please tell me it's not in cash converters?0 -

A4e is the big winner here, find them contract jobs, they get £100. They get laid off, go through the whole round again, find them another short term job, they get another £100.
What a scam.0 -

Poor chaps just been laid off after 1 week. Why do companies take someone on for 1 week???.Either he wasn't pulling his weight or the company are extracting the urine.
He had better get the new suit out again, you gotta feel for him ..0 -

Totally outrageous isnt it. Its not like it was 'found' through A4e. Such a shame all he wants is a job... The ending credits said the young girl was also laid off after 4 weeks

And a 90 pound clothing allowance to boot. I would have bet £100 he would not have the job by the end of the programme and I am not a gambler.

And the boss of A4E was squirming at the end with the questions. Blaggers.
If Hayley's not back next week I'm not watching it, she is priceless.:TI came in to this world with nothing and I've still got most of it left. :rolleyes:0 -

What a scam.
maybe the longterm unemployed should set up a business to help others back to work. better deal than the "zero hour contracts". can you believe that is actually legal? if it's like that under labour help us all when the blues get in.Those who will not reason, are bigots, those who cannot, are fools, and those who dare not, are slaves. - Lord Byron0
