    You don't look up a spec you are just being silly now!

    The sheet should say spec or job or you are the one pulling the wool over their eyes.
    you are the one saying i would be stuffed if they decided to look up what we know they cant look up.
    theres nothing on the sheet in relation to saying whether it is spec or advertised. and they have never said anything to me in relation to this.

    and what happens when they do? That's right you don't have the info for the REAL job applications so they cant and they will then say its not a real job application.

    You would be stuffed.

    and as I said is jobseekers allowance. isnt applying for advertised jobs an obvious part of it...if you cant see that then ...well.

    your adults why is it you think we need to baby people through a process.
    applying for and looking for work is. you can use whatever methods you choose and anything specified on your agreement. including advertised jobs is just an opinion and i agree with it but its nothing more until it is put on your agreement. your opinion could be restricting hours is wrong but if someone has done it you have to put up with it.
