Benefits Cash Card

Its dole- not doll.

With a bit of determination a person can even improve their literacy whilst in employment. Skills for life, indeed.

Lol, i'm absolutely loving this conversation. The money people receive from Job Seekers Allowance is meant to contribute towards basic living expenses. If you like a drink or two, you need to work for it!!! I'm not nagging, i was on the doll for over a year a few years back, but with a bit of determination and a positive mind set you can achieve anything you want to!! You will get out of life what you put into it. And within 3 years off coming off the doll i am now an assistant manager of a well known blue chip company and on my way to becoming 'The Boss' all i can say is dont give up, keep trying and something will come up if you want it hard enough.

Ahh a newbie joins the fray when the previous newbie has lost his argument. Return of the troll?

exactly you get out of life what you put in. The workshy put nothing in so shouldnt get anything out...nothing until they start paying their way in this world. If they are able to get a job that is what they should do.
Just reading the other thread about people not turning up for interviews,that doesnt surprise me, easy life, why would they want to change it and have to work for their money.

Johny, again why so angry? Has a jobseeker recently insulted you, slept with your wife / girlfreind / boyfreind, or beaten you at cards?

Why should people out of work have such an impact onYOUR life for you to spit such venom? All of your posts seem the same. You seem to have very little to offer rather than spit cliche's and at best quarter truths in various directions.

I suggest you stop posting for a couple of days to reflect on the things you have typed recently.

The fact that Johnny hasn't been attacking those in work shows that he is biased. You should go over the facts of Benefit Cash Card again Johnny because those that are in work will be affected too should they claim other benefits such as tax credits. So all over a sudden, even those in work are ristricted to where and how they can spend. Many hasn't woken up yet though.

If youre on the way to becoming a boss you should learn to spell. What sort of doll was you on, a rubber one.

Youre dead right there Johnnynostep. Cant go to an interview if something good is on my 43 inch plasma.
Also i like to drink my whisky and smoke my 40 cigarretes so i have no time to go to interviews.
Spending 5 minutes every 2 weeks on my job search is enough for anyone,
Why would anyone want to go to a interview with crappy pay when Johnnynostep is working his butt off to pay for my luxuries.
Oh ive just noticed, my drink cupboard looks bare. Better go get a grant to stock up.
Merry xmas Johnnynostep and thanks for paying me for my turkey.
Will be thinking of you while i am watching Jeremy Kyle
Laugh Laugh Laugh.

Thanks for the spelling check guys, but being deslexic means i can only spell words how i say them. But i dont have to worrie about that issue now i have you. I only commented on here attempting to add a positive attitude towards the guy who posted this. But hey 'this is England' i should have expected this.

71 a week plus all the other benefits the workshy get. tens of thousand pounds a year for sitting on their a**** watching daytime tv,...raking it in!!!

I'm not on NMW but do feel hard done by that my taxes are paying for those to sleep till lunch, maybe go to the bookies, the pub, then sit down to daytime tv. All paid for by me and the other workers.
I dont get benefits apart from i think it is about £20/week, but even that is going next year, to pay for the workshy no doubt.

I know literally that is what your taxes are spent on, i.e. living costs for someone else. But really the payment is to benefit the taxpayers as much as the claimants. If not for those payments, we'd have a huge increase in crime, because people would need to steal just to survive. Those payments are keeping you and your assets safe.

I don't know if you have ever been on the dole, but I was on it for a short while in the 1990-92 recession. You do get used to subsistence living after a while, but it is quite isolating. Things I used to take for granted, like not being able to afford to go for a coffee, or a cinema ticket, used to get me down.

For sure, you get used to most of your time being free, - and more so nowadays than in those days because today you can just apply for jobs online at 3am in the morning and keep your days quite free.

While that was 20 years ago and I haven't been out of work since, I did go through stages where I realised there was a possibility I may never work in the PAYE world again. At the time I felt like a "thrown away" person, for whom society had no use.

But make no mistake, that compensation you are paying to the unemployed, compensation for being a throw away "member" of society, surplus to requirements, is probably one of the best investments (in your safety) of your taxes you'll ever make. It prevents riots on our streets.
