  • You are twisting what's happened and you don't see how much anyone is looking for work and you haven't accepted that the WP screws up people's lives with its lies and errors

    Ive seen all these people with there flat screen tvs, sky tv, spending all day in the pub, smoking cig after cig. Lying in bed all day while us strivers go out to work to pay for their lifestyle.

    Now thats not fair.

    In bed or in the pub? You cant be in both surely?

    I have no flat screen TV or SKY or lie in bed all day nor do I drink or smoke.

    I worked for over 26 years till I lost my job.

    Being out of work is not a life style as I have no life now.

    they made errors, not lied. Like I said everyone makes mistakes, get over it.
    The service should not be there and people should get jobs and then wouldn't need to deal with this. Strive more.
    They did lie. Mistakes made and then they lied and said I didn't attend.

    They signed a WP08 form which says

    'I declare the information given above is correct and accurate'

    FOUR TIMES!!!

    If I could get a job I wouldn't be worried but since the WP cant help you get one or you are up against idiot companies who say
    'We are looking for an entry level person for this position with about 1 or 2 years experience who we can really develop into the position. I'm afraid you are too experienced and the role wouldn't be enough'

    OR

    'We did not feel your wealth of AP experience was best suited to this particular vacancy as our clients have instructed’

    OR


    'she thought you are the role is too much junior for you - we're looking for someone who is starting his/her career un finance and accounting, with around 1-2 years of experience, and who is willing to study towards a CIMA qualification. So she thought giving you a too junior role would not be a good idea neither for you nor for *******'.I hope this makes sense, and that you don't feel too disheartened'


    How can you get a job with these responses?

    So it's fair that the WP lies because you falsely generalise about people?
  • People strive when looking for work

    they say there are skivers out there and that is why the benefits inflation link was changed

    But not ALL are skivers like you seem to think and I never had a pay rise for 3 years in my job and the one before that was .98% so no increase in JSA wont bother me as I get nothing else.
