well sorry phil but you are your own worst enemy, i give up, i really do. you obviously dont want to work as all you do is make excuses as to why you cant work.
I left school with no GCSE'S, i nearly went to jail aged 15, have never really had a stable job, have a criminal record and STILL HAVE MANAGED TO GET A JOB IN THE CARE SECTOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There are no excuses phil, none at all.:j Baby boy Number 2, arrived 12th April 2009!:j0 -

There is no shame in going to the job centre (and you ask to see the DISABLED EMPLOYMENT ADVISOR - you don't go in and just see anyone - you ask to see the DEA!) it is not a hand out or an easy option! It is not a matter of not being able to look after yourself - I really do not know where you get these ideas from I really don't0 -

Phil,
For Gawd's sake, I and Tobruk and others have been telling you to do this for what seems like forever.:wall:
I am sure you can do a job, but what with your parents and your personality issues (ie;.....you cannot ever take the initiative, and seem to need validation before you do anything), I really do think that you need help from a DEA to get employment (any employment!)
They will understand your lack of confidence and support you - that's what they are trained to do.:j
At the moment, you are full of what job *you* want, but the facts are that you are not qualified for anything - you have been educated to a certain standard, and that's it.
Employers (in the jobs you mention) require other things, so you need to start with what you can cope with, and then work your way up the greasy pole.............;)
Please, just go and talk to them.....................before I lose the will to live.........:eek:
Ignore your parents, ignore any relatives, ignore the world.............just do it!

I do want to work and get away from sat here at home being all sad. I have set my mind to prove to you all that all your efforts have not been wasted and that I can be a happy person and have a job. I need to do that for myself too have self respect and good feelings again.:beer:0 -

You could be in town today picking up application forms but instead you'd rather sit here moaning about not having a job rather than doing anything about it.-->♥<-- Sugar Coated Owl -->♥<--
