    From the Chester-le Street area, who would've thunk it :lol:

    The scrawny doink looks a right tool with that cuban on it looks so big round his neck it'd snap his head off if he bent over too quickly, and he's wearing a Berghaus too :lol:

    Bet he used to nick cars, or maybe he still does :D

    that piece of crap was on tv last night..the term used is "feckless father"

    he claims dole "some" of the time.. they should say.. sure you can claim dole AFTER you have have the snip..

    if thats not woeful enough....

    he doesn't even know the name of his own kids and hasn't even seen some of them!!!

    Thing is we're the stupid ones as we let him get away with this time and time and time again.

    Someone needs to sedate him and give him the snip asap ! Ridiculous the amount of kids he has. I mean you think hes rough, think how rough all his girlfriends are.

    I mean if youre a girl and a bloke comes up to you and you've heard about him around town, that he has 12,000 kids already you would surely run a mile ? These girls must be thick as anything

    they aren't thick.. they think another baby.. bigger house etc.
    they are just playing the system.

    and whats worse is because of his "I don't use condoms" thing... he's just spreading x amount of other nastyness , and if he isn't.. the odds are he will be the way he carries on.

    and the usual excuse of "oh but if i work ... it's not as much as dole".. fine ... let them work for their dole money and if they want to mess up the jobs on purpose.. no problem, just cut their money off.

    same with prisoners , there is a shortage of prisons ? get them labouring building new ones, instead of leaving them with games consoles etc. and for the lot in open prision who torched it.. I'd add a few years on to their sentences for arson.

    some of you lot have kids, and I'm sure you want the best for their future.. but being on the dole isn't gonna get that.. it's actually teaching kids how to be scroungers if their parents are perfectly fit to work.

    (and no I don't read the daily mail or sign anything "angry.. from swindon" etc :lol:)

    As from not being from uk or living in it,does baffle me sometimes when i hear you grumble about the benefit system when its meagre compare the one in my own country.

    They give playstations/tvs/medication to prisoners to calm them and it works in most cases.

    jack.. it does calm them.. so much so they think it's a holiday camp.. get released.. go on a crime spree and go back in and think it's a cushy number.. and if that got taken away they'd be crying about human rights.. and should be reminded of the human rights of their victims in some cases.

    your irish if I recall ? they have issues with it there also though. pensioners in ways get looked after better there than they do here (my gran is there)

    I'm glad its meagre, if it was pretty good then there'll be more and more people playing the system.

    Surely theres lots of jobs these people could be doing than just sat at home? (NOT saying everyone is like this but you know the types i mean).
  • edited January 2011
    Yup im a paddy,the system here,works fine,but,when stuff kept get adding on,it leads to like the uk,"the why bother work" scenario,and some people are caught in situation where they are financially better off not to get work unfortunately because job wouldn't be enough to pay for mortgage/kids/loans over their heads,its not cut to the bone like the uk.

    @psj-course there is work,but,usually say like ten jobs going in a shop for example,expect usually 1000+ applications,its desperate here.
  • edited January 2011
    Well again to be fair i can see why people 'play the system'. They say 'theres no point doing job 'a' as i'll be worse off, might as well stay on benefits'. That has to change, if benefits werent so much then they would go out and look for work much more than they currently are now.

    Just think they should be forced to do this work. When i took my first job it was crap, one reason i lived at home for years because the money was terrible but had to start somewhere.

    Difficult problem to solve though, depressing when you hear about the scale of it though

    Native kraut, at your service. But I can't quite follow what you said, do you mean that chav with the 8 kids looks like a character out of a guy ritchie film (according to your friend from Freiburg)? Haven't seen said films so I wouldn't know. To be just slightly on-topic, we do have our own version of chavs though. Hell, which country doesn't?

    I should be clearer.. you said "Innit" in your post.. you reminded me of my friend from friburg, with such sayings.. he learned his englishness of guy ritchie films, and watching the subtitles.hehe

    as for pat mustard, he is a character out of the tv show father ted..

    maybe this will work for you

    Get ready for an almost ewgf-sized post! ;)

    Right, this might sound like a rant...but it's not really, so nobody get offended! And nothing has really been said to offend me either...

    ..and I'm not suggesting that anyone thinks everybody on the dole is the same, it's just I feel I have to put in my tuppence worth and be the voice of the unemployed for anyone reading who does think that! I just know how these types of discussion can go wrong..:D

    Speaking as someone who sent off roughly 300 application forms, spec letters,CVs etc. at the end of last year, and got 6 replies back ....and only 1 interview....I can safely say that the employment situation in Scotland is pretty bad!

    I get about ?64 a week, which is just enough to survive....but only because my rent is paid and I only pay ?20 a fortnight towards Council Tax....it can get tricky when I get a big fuel bill, but never bad enough that it goes unpaid for long! If they made benefits smaller, then I wouldn't be able to stay in the flat, and would have to move back to the parents in the middle of nowhere and I'd be back at square one!

    I would like to say that I wouldn't have a problem working for my dole though, even if it was just cleaning the bloody streets or something, as it would also get me outside and doing something and talking to people....much as sitting in playing Xbox and watching TV all day sounds like fun, it does get pretty bloody boring after a while....especially when everybody else you know is working!

    If I get a job, it needs to be at least 35 hours a week at about ?7 an hour in order for it to pay enough for bills,travel and such. If I got a job in Edinburgh for 7 days a week, the transport alone would cost me ?51....Not making excuses, like..just saying! :)

    I do think it's funny though, that because I'm on an employment course to find work, the Government can say that I'm not unemployed as I'm in training....Nobody on my course shows up on unemployment figures, and there's 40 in my group that goes once a week! I think the system totally needs to change....at the moment they have a scheme where they offer an employer 2 grand as an incentive if they take on someone who has been unemployed for more than 6 months, for at least six months! Surely they would be better giving just a couple of hundred quid to the person getting the job, so they have cash for the first month before getting a paycheck...and what happens after the 6 months? See ya, thanks for working...send the next one in???

    Some more background story....After the local hotel near my parents closed, I needed to move as there was no more local work in the sticks, and no bus service either, and as the parents are both pensioners with little cash, I wanted to be closer to civilisation and work!

    Interestingly, when I applied to the housing before I got my flat, they basically told me that because I was a single male of 29, with no dependants, what would probably happen is that I'd get put in a hostel for 2 months, then put out onto the street after that, as I was not a "priority" case...then I couldn't believe what the woman said to me..."If you want a house, I suggest you go and get some girl pregnant"..!

    She said it jokingly, but you could tell she also meant it......I didn't find it that funny. Is that what she's telling kids who are looking for a house??? Maybe it's not just the Chavs and Neds to blame!!

    Anyway, I just kept hassling them, sending letters, phoning them constantly until I got my flat...which is beside a junkie drug-dealer and an old manic-depressive drunk, but y'know...beggers can't be choosers as they say! But they stuck me in North Berwick, which is just about as much out in the sticks as my mum and dad's.....

    What I'm saying is, not all jobless folk are people having loads of kids and faking injury or illness to sponge cash off hard working punters...just like every other group of people we're a wide and varied bunch! Some of us are actually trying to find work....Numpties like the guy this thread is about do nothing to help those of us long term unemployed who are actually trying to do something about it, and we have to put up with sitting beside idiots like them in the dole office too! :lol:

    Anyway, sorry for the excessively long post....I know most of you have jobs to do! :razz: ;) :D

    Well not everyone on the dole wants to be on it. I'm sure a lot of people on here who are working at the moment have had periods of unemployment, I know I have. Unemployment seems like a vicious circle at times. Can't get a job due to lack of experience, but need a job to get experience.

    I 100% didnt mean you at all, i know a few people who send off tons of letters, get interviews but sadly dont get the job but keep trying. I cant say a bad word against anyone like that.

    But you know the types i mean, the idiots who are a complete waste of space, creating chav after chav and are quite happy smoking dope over and over. You go into any town centre during the day in the week and you'll see lots of these types.

    And yeah i can imagine you spot many of these types in the dole office. I actually started off as a YTS years ago (Was embarassing back then so i didnt tell many people !) and some of the people on the course were complete muppets and you knew they were only on it just to shut up the job centre or whoever.

    Agree with MrCheese above, people cant win, need to get a job but youre either over qualified or not enough experience. As he says you need a job for experience but its difficult to get on that first rung.

    Oh yeah....some openly admit to playing the system too! I get told of sorts of things, because being unemployed, they think they can tell me stuff 'coz we're in the same boat as they see it....they try and give me tips about loans or extra money I can scam from the dole or how to keep the jobcentre off my back by talking total crap....even if I wanted to, I'd be too worried I got caught anyway though! :lol:

    They best one is the guy upstairs from me though, who is on Incapacity for a dodgy leg....saw him bring his own sofa upstairs, and dancing in the pub on tables and stuff! Totally at it, like.....

    I do love it when these people get shopped by someone and then get their benefits stopped or they have to pay it back (probably a quid a week).

    If i was taking the mick, having money for being ill i sure as hell wouldnt go out playing golf or sunday league footy, how thick are these people ?

    I mean its depressing. Yeah shes no oil painting, shes as daft as a brush to be with him.

    But when you know your boyfriend has 7 kids with 7 other women, he doesnt then come across as the long term type does he ? So what does she do ? Get a tattoo of his name on her arm ! I like tattoos but i wouldnt get one of someone whos slept and had kids with half the UK.

    People like the above (NOT (before i get lynched) every unemployable person but idiots like the above), i would give tons of community work for him to do so hes not just sat there doing nothing.

    I mean the idiot says hes not bothered by most of his kids, not like hes a great parent and bringing them up well when hes off work.

    Just think for people like him the money shouldnt keep going up and up every kid he has. Should be a cap, that'll soon discourage 'some' people from having 83 kids by the age of 18.

    Well, I had to trundle off to the jobcentre yesterday to sign on....was sitting there for about 2 minutes when this totally drunk old guy came in and sat beside be...He preceded to try and chat up 2 very scared-looking girls who were obviously about 17 or 18, slag off all the centre staff, shout obscenities at anyone he took offence at, etc.

    The security guard came over, and rather than remove him, he just told him to be quiet and started chatting away to him...the drunk then invited everyone to the pub, which was a nice thought, but no.....and said that the staff in the jobcentre couldn't stop us as "it's our money we'll be spending not their's..."....Well, technically.....

    Then he said it didn't really matter if he got his money or not as he had been working on the boats for the last 6 months!?!?

    If it was up to me I would have turfed him out and told him he wasn't getting signed on until he came back sober...he was being really creepy with the girls especially, licking his lips at one point and telling one of them he'd seen her coming out of her house...it was all very uncomfortable...

    Just another typical day at the jobcentre.....

    If it makes you feel better my dad was very sorry for that incident and told me later he swore those two girls were in their 30's. He does apologise
