I can finally go and claim jobseekers as I'm officially no-longer a student.
Problem is that the job centre is officially all the way down town and I can't  be bothered to walk that far. I presume they won't give me money until friday anyway so I'll probably wait until tomorrow.

Anybody want to employ me?

Ill give you 3 quid to do my washing up :D

Oh hang on did you get a degree?

I need to check your qualifications.

Nah I failed. Does that mean I'm not qualified?

you can come and do my ironing and was my car, you can also muck out my horses and exercise them if you want? Good rates of pay  :D  :D

Send me your CV I'll have a look cant promise anything though :D

Just writing my cv now, well thinking about it at least anyway. Got as far as opening word.

I'd do your ironing and wash your car birdy, horses scare the shit out of me though. Respect to anybody who has the bottle to get on the back of one of those beasts.

you big wuss, my horse is so unscary

Arghhh!! I've got no skills and I've achieved nothing. Making this cv thing bit tricky.

I will sell you mine?

Actually I just realised I've got quite a lot of skills but no evidence to back it up. Maybe I should have tried harder on my degree.

um yes, that might of been handy for you

The jobseekers people are well ace on the phone. Not only that but they'll ring me back on thursday, ask me questions over the phone and fill my form in for me. Fucking ace. It's like they want me to claim jobseekers.

You going to be able to survive on £40 a week Ben? Or won't you be paying rent?  :D

you do know that you have to provide regular evidence that you have been applying for jobs don't you?

Well they don't really check though. You just have to say you went to an agency twice this week or looked in the paper or applied for a job. It's actually a doddle.

I was thinking of signing on until I start my full time job end of August, but I've got too much stuff to do until then anyway now.

someone i know has been claiming jobseekers for a while and working on the sly too, its easily done.

uni confirmed my 2:2 for the 2nd year today, which means i need to increase that by 9% next year for a 2:1. i reckon i can do it considering i did no work this year.

Absolute joke, get a job, dont start saying theres no jobs available, theres always packing shelves at Tesco or flipping burgers at mcdonalds.  Lazy fuck

Well, this thread should do for his first fortnight's worth of evidence :D

In defence of flammableben, i believe he is not whinging about no jobs being available, just that he does not want one.  As a waster at heart myself, it's something I can identify with.  However, my landlord would not appreciate this argument when rent was not forthcoming.
It's a crap world, really.

If the majority can get off their buts and get a job, I don't see why the rest of you can't.

Again, I reiterate my point that it's more of a don't want to than can't.  Noone said can't.

No one wants to work though but we all do!

I wish i could become unemployed without being made homeless...

Id get bored if I didnt work, I was off Monday sick, was bored by 1pm!

i'm finding it quite difficult to get some work for the summer, not many temp positions about.

going to have to resort to warehouse work i think. my ideal would be delivery driver, i bet getting paid to drive about all day is great.

you must lead quite a life.

Ha, well I dont have any mates who dont work so leaves you with drink on own, go to gym, shopping? what else is there to do in the week on your own? I guess you find fun smoking weed in teh day which is fair enough!

i guess if your mates all have jobs too it could get a little boring, i'm sure theres more than take drugs/gym/shopping you could think of doing though.

i avoid smoking in the day if i've actually got some things to do, it tends to reduce productivity significantly.

if you don't need the money, there's no need to work.

i've not been able to find a summer job. everything is office based and i've got no office skills, apparently.

Not planning to stay on job seekers for ever. I'll get a job before too long.

I've always found temp work hard to come by in the summer, hence why I was considering signing on until I start full time work, because I feel a bit bad scrounging off my mum all of the time.

i laze about all the time, in fact i just woke up. but i get paid loads. fucking great aint it.

and what do you actually do mex? how does one going about your career path?

be a bit of a cunt, blag it, fuck around, treat everyone with respect and if they fuck with you put them in hospital.

thats about it really.

tough day today, woke up 12.30. swim in pool. check emails, walk along beach grab some lunch. piano lesson this week im learnig reggae piano! then some dinner, 2020 cricket at hove, then take in a club with some mates.

rushed off my fuckin feet.

i'm massively impressed! i got up at 9 and watched rubbish tv, played civilisation III a bit, posted on here, got a job. i think i need a nap, that makes it seem like i've done things

i meant career wise though mex

I love mex

from what he said you've hurt him quite badly bushey boy. even your return from mexico hasn't helped, i'd leave it mate

Its time for me to move on.

what does a 2nd chef do? if it involves cleaning i'm not sure if i want to lower my standards that far, have a trial shift tuesday.

Think you're just not as important as a head chef, maybe do more of the smaller prep jobs. I don't really know though.
