    There is nothing worse than having to go to the job centre every 2 weeks. The place if full of drop outs, !!!!!! ect

    I can't believe you honestly think this. I've to go monthly to the jobcentre and I've seen lots of people like me - professionals who had good careers but have been made redundant due to the recession. I'm certainly not a pikie or a drop out.

    I think perhaps you're bored at home and using this forum for your own amusement, wasting the time of people genuinely wanting to help others.
    "I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."

    Not all ppl are genuine, some ARE !!!!!! who are just after free money.

    Actually I use this forum for savings account advice.

    There is a difference between disgarding certain jobs to maintain your health than to disregard jobs because you think you are too good for them.

    If I was an employer looking at your CV I would rather take on somebody without any gaps...working at somewhere like Tesco is better than doing nothing.


    I've only got a 2 month gap. hardly major.

    I also tried voluntary work but to no avail.

    There is nothing out there YET, simple.
