    You wore the same t-shirt to each of your appointments?
    Maybe that was the problem. Maybe the advisor thought you weren't washing it inbetween?

    I don't wear the same t-shirt, I have them in different colours but with the same slogan :)

    I find your t-shirt extremely offensive, because it's such a lie. Why would you want to lie to people like this? Just about the whole planet knows about your sexuality by now!

    Maybe he didn't like the colour of the t-shirt you wore on week 5 or 6 or whenever it was he mentioned it?

    Or maybe he thought that, as this is all your wardrobe appeared to consist of, you wore this kind of t-shirt to interviews?

    What happens if you get a job (heaven forbid), and your employer does not like your choice of clothing.
    Could we have a union meltdown and picket lines !

    Because we live in a hetero-normative society. You aren't in danger for being married.

    Tell that to my boss who has just been through a messy divorce and rather resents the fact that I'm happy.....

    And I'm in a minority having been married so long, it's getting rarer these days!

    Assuming that the OP is not simply a troll, then they are the prime example of the sort of claimant that so many working people are unhappy about.

    Fortunately the current government has realised that there are far too many people like this, and they are starting to ratchet down paymentsNot working is a lifestyle choice for the OP, one that they will hopefully be queezed out of before too long.

    He couldn't manage to hold down a voluntary job in a shop for long due to his choice of work wear.


    I fear that GG is rapidly becoming unemployable.
