    I'd do it, not as a job as I'd get sued by my employers.

    She gave me her number. I rang her up, she then told me that she can't tell me if I got it or not. I have to wait for the job centre to be in touch.

    WHY GIVE ME YOUR NUMBER THEN YOU TIT!?

    All this "NO USED GAEMS!" on PS4/new Xbox is making me consider getting rid of my PS3 and 360 and getting a decent PC. There will always be a way around anti piracy protection on a PC.

    And there's Steam. Plus I can run the PC into my 32" LCD, use a wired 360 controller... And do shit loads of other things with it.

    When I get a job again I'm spending about €1000 on a brilliant tower alone, I'm sick of my current pc.

    I thought even for that there would be more people.

    Also they have similar schemes here, you still get the dole just the company doesn't pay you isn't that how it works?

    Yep. Job centre will also pay "expenses" apparently, which they fucking are. My dole money is for food and driving lessons only.

    Alot of the people I know on the dole pretend to look for work and stuff so they can keep their dole, so the numbers of people looking for the jobs is higher on record but the amount showing up for interviews is actually alot lower.
