    - I agree, but they are merely the axeman, they swing the helve and take the pieces of silver
    - the DWP like ATOS, like the work programme, like the job centres are all axemen
    - in the pay of all governments, doing their bidding, meeting their targets and taking the rewards
    oh but they cant meet any targets if they are lying !!!

    Its a gross miss use of the taxpayers £££

    Poor you.

    Have you tried checking if others at your JC are being treated same as you ?
    Is your JC in back of beyond, cut-off from outside world.

    Maybe ask if they have any courses which will give you a break.

    What do you talk about each day for 6+ weeks ? :doh: rolleyes.gif

    sorry to hear that Leroy28

    you are maybe already going down the same path where the rest of us are headed - if that's any consolation - could be your JC is doing some kind of trial programme before they roll it out

    or the biatches you are having to deal with just need reporting

    I'm sure something will change sooner or later

    just try to keep your chin up and not give them any excuse to give you more problems - if that's possible

    if I were signing every day I would go out of my mind

    what about talking to your GP and asking for information about signing off for a few months? You must be depressed - because the JC have MADE you depressed

    I know they tightening up on ESA now but it may be the break you need even for a month or two
