I AM always reading about the Government’s solution to not having a job. York Job Centre offers jobs that are for a few days when needed, or offer work experience at the charity shop. Even that depends who sends you, whether you get a little extra dole money or not.
Fortunately, I don’t have to do this, but I would just like someone to tell it as it is – a life signing on the dole by someone who has to do it. I’m tired of hearing the saying “they won’t have work”, some people do want to.
