The DWP has become the centre of our lives because we have been forced
to live on DWP benefits for a period of time. Not by choice you
understand - I'm certainly NOT a lazy arse. I work very hard. The
Jobcentre inundate me with letters and phone calls - reminding me of
appointments, giving me unsuitable job details, threatening me with
benefit withdrawl if I don't comply! I feel cornered. They tell me I
must be prepared to travel for 90 minutes to work, which is a bit
silly, bearing in mind I use buses. I need to be closer to home as I
am a Carer. I've just been told today that they will stop my benefit
if I don't attend another useless 13 week course starting in January.
Lets hope I'm fixed up by then to save me the indignaty. I have a few
interviews - in my chosen field and local area I might add - so things
are looking up!
