    If I asked for help they'd say no I do not need it
    only you know if you need help. you could say things like is this ok or what should i put for this question on the application form etc. playing dumb will cause them aggrevation.

    every application is different and i think you are over estimating their ability to remember.

    I think you are assuming every application can be sent be post.

    i never assumed that. i said with many you can. you assumed none at all can. even though i pointed out that i know someone who does all of theirs through the post you still tried to convince me otherwise. if you really want to annoy them you could resort to speculative applications through the post when you are there. if you dont want to annoy them then dont. you are not going not convince me you cant.

    You are very funny as I annoy them every time I am there actually by letting me sit there so I can have a chat and get information off others who have a grudge with the way the run their !!!! systems. I plan to get peoples names and details next time I am sitting there for over 1 hour and 20 minutes!!

    If you seriously know someone who does all their applications through the post it is no wonder they are still looking as I bet 50% never even arrive

    not everyone is good with computers and unless an employer specifies online only then you can apply other ways.
