.....anybody see this? Apparently one of the Swindon NEETs was called Ben
This is Ben, one of the young people we met, talking about how unemployment affects him: "Eventually you just stop really caring so much... you get up, you go through the grind, you have your day, you go back to bed, you repeat - ad infinitum."
Sound familiar?

Kids these days are lazy. When i were a lass i had a choice to carry on at college or get a job otherwise my mum would have kicked my arse, now my job is not the best in the world but i have always paid my way and never been out of a job. Apart from one year where i had a child, left his father and moved towns.... Single parents out of work makes me even more mad! I think theres loads of work around swindon if you're not picky.

There's nothing wrong with taking a break after uni or whatever, but i think there is something wrong in not doing fuck all because people just cant be bothered.

Oi! I'm a hard working lad now. In a dangerous industry to. I just chewed the dead skin off my finger wound. Turns out I'm missing an ace little corner out of the tip of my thumb. I'd take a picture but I don't have a digital camera.
