I'd probably find your post more sincere if you hadn't just lowered your hours in the hope of getting more benefit.

Yeah Ok when you have no family left, have next to nothing and work hard with having nothing to show for it.

You make a post

I wouldn't judge.

What makes you think I haven't been there myself?

Doing 21 hours a week is not hard work.
What you need to do is put your energy into finding something better/getting a 2nd job/begging for your hours back.

If you don't like it then that's tough.
That's just the way it is I'm afraid.

You need to get a job with more hours or a 2nd job - is this possible do you think?
Well done for walking so far, must be hard! x

For me it's hard work to get up in the morning let alone go to work.
Kinda a hard time to find a job atm let alone two of them ! xD

I know life's hard being on the streets and being where I am now I know that very well.

If i would to make things easy I would just quit my job get jsa , find a girl make some baby's and ride the benefit train. But no i work and the only reason i lowered my hours was due to lack of money benefits are ment to be there for people who need help not to live off. witch I'm no way doing ..unless you call the £1.84 a week.

My dream is to become a paramedic I know I'm the only one who can help me with that I wont get money off no one , but thats life.

Now I made this post because I really need help atm
If you don't want to help me that's fine I'm cool with it but please stop the hate I don't need anymore of it.

I agree, no more silly posts towards the OP.

No-one knows their exact circumstances, and to be fair they are asking for help.

Can you get your hours back from your job?

Can you go on a college course in Sept? You prob get it free with a low income.. Do you work everyday during the week? Or is there a day you can go to college?

Just a thought OP, what about taking on a lodger? Any possibility of that?

Another thought OP. any chance you can move back in with your mother? I know it is not ideal, but at least you won't be struggling so much financially.

Good luck,

I do shift work so i work about 3 days a week now and a weekend every two weeks.

I think it works out that il get about £15 less a week , if i was to go to college I should get an Alg of about £30 a week so il be better off yes I'm just worried they wont be able to work my hours in at college .

Yeah you're right. Telling the OP to try and get his hours back/2nd job/different job is really silly.

Considering you've also advised OP to get his hours back, the 'sillyness' must be catching
