woops
Seeing as you wont leave I'll try to put this a way you can understand
Let's say
Your working 25 hours a week job you pay your bills and are left with next to nothing.......Your child is hungry.. your running out of money to feed him/her!!!!!!!
Work will not give you more hours !!!!!!
Do you
A. Try and get benefits to help feed her/her
B. Let him/her skip meals, Who wants a fat kid anyway ?
c. Let the F88ker die, you can always make more right ?
Now tell me Did you pick A ?
If you did, welcome to my world and as you say we are lazy and don't work right xD
Now tell me did you pick B
If you did, Your a bad mother and your die unloved!
Now tell me did you pick C
If you did, shame on you!
You don't need to answer back Just hit Alt+left arrow
Going for the sympathy vote now are we?
1) after paying bills you have £150 left over. That's a hell of a lot more than some people. Who cares if your flat isn't properly furnished. It takes years to sort your first home out.
2) It's not a case of you not being able to take on more hours. You willingly reduced yours. If you had genuinly done it to better yourself/make life easier you would have done your homework first. Not posted on here for help AFTER you had dropped your hours.
I don't know why you need it spelling out to you.
You've only dropped 5 hours a week. Your benefit entitlement is not going to change dramatically. Certainly not enough to solve your money problems so what's the point?
All it does it make you appear lazy and workshy.
Of course you don't have to like what I'm saying. But you post on an open forum. Expect to hear things you don't like.
There's an ignore button. Use it or get used to it.Future Mrs Gerard Butler

Suggesting he takes an evening course to improve his (obviously poor) English is hardly attacking him. In fact, I didn't mention his spelling or grammar! However, improving his literacy skills can only improve his employment chances.
£150 a month is a lot for a single person - considering this is merely for utilities and food. There are many on here that manage on much less. Again, I made a reasonable suggestion that the OP consider heading over to the Old Style board for some help in making his money go further.
Perhaps you should read other people's posts a little more carefully before getting on the white horse in future.
Yes my English is bad ( witch is way I want to go to college to help me get better) But whatever, how write on this forum Has NOTHING to do with my current situation.
£150 a month IS not alot,It may be manageable to others who have had experience but when your starting out new it really dose not go that far.0 -

I have no idea. I don't feel the need to ignore people who I disagree with.
Don't worry, I'm sure some other wet rag who's probably worn out their ignore button will be along in a min to point you in the right direction :cool:
