But There Are No Jobs
Discussion
Says who?
I often browse the job market when I have an idle moment or two, and the amount of positions out there are staggering.
Practically anything you could ever dream of doing.
I've long said that those on the dole are work shy barstewards and I stick by that statement.
I'm talking basic minimum wage jobs here too which I imagine the majority of the unemployed will be looking for.
And for those who are 'holding out' for a position in their chosen field....maybe it's time you sucked it up and at least started attempting to put some food on the table for your children.

Like many of you, my job /current location / background (single mum - council house) sees me rubbing shoulders on a daily basis with those at the bottom of the pile and those considered to be at the top of society.
Rightly or wrongly, I also like to make sweeping generalisations, whether based on fact or opinion (as does everyone), though I do not include those on disability (genuinely disabled) within my example.
I know family and friends who are recent grads who will not take any job they feel beneath them (i.e. minimum wage).
My step father is a self employed plasterer struggling for work who will only look for work in his trade. He has bills to pay. How long will it be before he takes that role at pizza hut as a delivery driver?
There are many other examples I could give you which fit into the above two one way or another.
Yes, everyones situation is different but a lot people don't even seem to be trying.
My take on the 'brown-skinned', disabled, foreigners? If you knew me you wouldn't ask such a question.
Instead of calling me a troll, lets here the other side of the story.

The irony appears to be strong in this thread.
I personally have had roughly 4-5 different employers since 2008 and at one point a few instances of employment ran concurrently.
I have also enjured harsh periods of unemployment where I honestly didn't know how the f*ck I was going to carry on.
Swings and roundabouts but life is what you personally make of it.
