    And you can set your sense of self importance to off ;)

    I don't see that encouraging someone to do the right thing rather than the easiest thing is "self important". This isn't about me; it's about the OP.

    I'm not trying to to rely on welfare I do my bit ! i pay my way !
    I only lowered my hours because my health is suffering I needed help ok I NEED HELP are you happy now ?

    And note that for my age group I work VERY hard I Don't get given anything no mummy or daddy to buy me lunch, buy me a car , take me on holiday.
    .

    I am going to reply to you as if you are genuine, although I do not believe you are.

    You do not work very hard for your age group at all. Most young people will be working full time hours which is twice as many as you are or they will be working your hours on top of full time study.

    Please don't keep embellishing your story, you make it less credible rather than more so.

    Can I bring my baby that I have had...father is a toss up between my cousins nephews brother's Dad Uncle....OR Ashley Cole

    Am hoping for the latter if only for the maintenance payments;)
    No, But we have found your long lost son who you never knew about due to your crazy drinking and drugs witch happened ten years ago and that you now have only faced your alcoholic or otherwise addicted behavior and your forever thankful to the
    The Jeremy Kyle Show

    Soon you will find out your long lost son is in fact....the 60 old man you had sex with while your over half filmed it!!

    that's the life of a Jeremy kyle guest for you.

    (rhetorical questions)
    Where are you from ?
    How many "Young" do you know who have a full time job and fully support themselves ?


    Please stop posting as your making no contribution to the goal of the thread and are in fact wasting your own time and even worse my time.

    Sweetie, when I was 19 (I'm 35 now), there was no WTC and I also owned my first flat. I had 2 jobs totalling an 18 hour weekday and all day on a Sat. I was also working towards my ACII exam at my main job....plus I went out and caned it every weekend;)

    I am mindful that you may still be grieving for your Mother but if you are that determined then you need to get off your tush and work work work and have a good life...shelve the career aspirations for now - your main priority is to get a regular income and some savings. You are 19 - you have your whole life to study, train and be successful but you need to deal in the here and now.

    And c'mon...you must know yourself that 21 hours is a crappy contribution?!;)


    I actually believe that you do want to suceed but you SO need to get the mindset changed...you should be falling into bed each night bloody knackered as you have worked a long day...but hey, you're 19, fit, young and healthy with no dependants so get yourself out there and shape a life then do your retraining.

    Good luck...and I would stop with the haters theme...seriously...it's not hate talk you are reading it's just sheer incredulility;)

    Prove them - and yourself -correct

    Thanks I can see you took time to help there i really am trying
    My area is very poor ,People spend there life on benefits and are happy about it. I am not one of them.

    I would LOVE to have a full time job so I can have cash to do fun things and not just live , This is all I could get And they wont give more hours unless you have been working there six months, It's very hard to find a job atm ask people who are looking there tell you.

    Can't help my bad luck and I can't help how !!!!ed the world is I just wanted help lol

    Going to try and delete this all now , gone way out of hand.

    If i was you I would learn to read the facts before you start relying on your brain.

    What facts? Oh you mean the one where you lowered your hours?
