    Why would I? I done this placement in the past so why should I worked with them again :(

    What else have you got to do ?

    If you want to stop doing the work placement in future then get a job.

    You stated, what else have I got to do?

    Well lets see, how about Job seeking because how the hell can I apply for jobs when I am on work placement 9am to 5pm?

    -"Oh gawd, it's alright for Head Office, but we actually have to put up with 'em. Wouldn't it be nice to get an enthusiastic one for a change who's a help not a bleedin' hindrance, like that lass we took on permanently.."

    Because 3 years of job seeking have gone really well so far! :T

    You have limited experience so the work program will help update your skills :beer:

    I am out of my house for about 11 hours a day. I still find time to job search and apply for jobs. Welcome to the real world.

    Many people work nine to five and seek work, and don't take years to find a new job! What exactly are you doing with your days to find work?

    You can do the applications in the evenings.

    And at weekends.
