I am totally with you on that one QOC. I don't mean to be awful to people on benefits. I am sure almost all of them are genuinely in need and spend their money wisely.
Anyway, I must stop gobbing away or you guys will think I am Katie Hopkins in disguise. And I have work tomorrow so I must be sympathetic and empathetic and lovely and caring and calm etc etc.;);)
I don't know how you guys do it, I'd probably have decked some of the ones I used to taxi to the benefits office.
One girl was on the phone talking to her mate, writing down the story she was about to tell someone as to why she 'got let go' from her previous job and needed to sign on. Turned out she'd been sacked for stealing!
Another was going for a crisis loan so she had spending money for the 4 week holiday to Spain she was about to go on! I also picked her and the family up to take them to the airport.
One guy really annoyed me, he was doing the double. The company he worked for knew and turned a blind eye, they knew he was using his 16 yr old DD's NI number but didn't seem to care.
I hated picking up the 18 yr old who always smelt badly of BO. He'd freely admit he'd rolled out of bed, no washing or dressing for him, straight into the taxi and up to make sure he'd signed on in time for money in the bank for the weekend.
I think it's the knowing they don't give a poop that got to me.SPC #329 £471/£500 banked

There's nothing bad in there, as we know
:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: That's extracted - part 2 out of 3!!:D Look we could be here all night (and, no:( - I'm letting myself in for the inevitable questions now from the likes of DM and others similar), discussing which of the criteria I meet. Which of those "two or more" from the list do I meet?:think: And "they're not exhaustive", remember. Totally useless ill-defined typical neuro-typical again:rotfl::rotfl::):T.
It's isn't - it's not a bad thing to a point to "persevere":T. You know I like most aspects of my Asperger disorder:j:j:D:D.(:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:)
Just to forewarn - or, rather, reassure you, I've no intention of posting the rest!
There, reassured: does Mr T's price prom. "reassure" you?:think:;):rotfl:0 -

I'm sure there are quite a few on here with some degree of OCD - I'm sure mine is getting worse, all my stashes have to be lined up, date order, and facing the same way :rotfl:0 -

Oh I nearly thought you were saying don't be special! I don't - it depends what you mean by "special" anyway - and, despite all appearances to the contrary:D, I don't claim to be anything "special" on this forum.
Right, I must go and sort out some of RL - got not to let my obsessive interests get in the way of RL;). Not too much;);):cool:. See ya soon!:D:j:j
Actually - jump around, jump around, yes you jump around Savvy like a pretentious quirk...!!:p:rotfl: Jumping as that's it from me for now - I'm calling it a night and I'll see you again!!
