back to being a CADmonkey
After being made redundant from my job as a refrigeration draughtsman at the end of last year, I lived it up on my payout/compensation for a while (long story, not reiterated here), then signed on for a bit and after a couple of false starts with joinery companies, I am now working a temporary contract as a draughtsman with a company who installs fire alarm systems in the UK.
It's dull as fk and I have to get up early to get there :( but at least it pays me £8.30ph which is slightly better than a kick in the teeth - which is what having anything to do with the jobcentre or the housing/counciltax benefit is like; would you believe that because I have a partner I was not elligible to claim any housing or counciltax benefit reduction? Only getting £65.00 per week dole andhaving 450 quid a month rent between us, they were expecting her to pay all of it! Considering I've paid my taxes and as such am comfortable in claiming some of it back from this thieving government, you'd have thought it would be ok.
They can throw away money on every bleeding heart assylum seeker/immigrant foreign welfare case, brood-sow unmarried teenage chav mother with 5 brats, pay child support to poles who work in the UK but who's kids are back in poland and yet a taxpaying brit born and bred gets FA when times fall a little hard.
I don't like the benefits agency at the best of times, but what's the point if they refuse to help people who need it? gaaah! /RANT
I miss my freedom to enjoy my time as I please instead of sitting in an office infront of a computer all week, but I'm glad to be out of social welfare help trap.
