The UK spongers?

hi i fell ive worked enough so i was wondering how you felt about me quiting my job and just sitting around all day going on the dole i mean alot of other people dont give a sh.it so why should i

Answers:
I work in a Job centre and I have met very few people who think it is a joy and fun to live on 57 quid a week. Most people who claim Job Seekers Allowance are desperate to find a job but, for usually very good reasons, can't. Some are illiterate (spell feel as fell, don't know how to use capital letters or spell a lot as one word). Of course there are other factors such as age and experience that keep people unemployed.

Most people who sign on do so for less that 6 months and are usually between jobs. They have worked and made their contributions which they now claim back. There are two types of Jobseekers allowance. One is Income based and the other is contributions based. The contribution based is calculated from what they have paid in while they were working so why shouldn't they claim it. Personally I think if you find yourself between jobs and don't claim it you are a fool and conning yourself. Income based is based on what a person has and like I said most of the people on this have genuine barriers to employment.
you do what you want it your life!
i know how you feel, me my hubby and kids would probably be alot better off if we were claiming benefits!! its disgusting peoplre who work deserve alot more than the unemployed!!
why not load of other do it
Well Dear...looking at your points total, you seem to have plenty of time to spend on the Interweb. So stop your moaning and get stuck in to your work.

if you want to sit around and watch the rest of your life pass you by then thats up to you.
I opted out of the rat race. Best thing I ever did. I now live the life of Riley.Ever day is a holiday for me.
SELF RESPECT .. besides beer tastes better when you know you've earned it.
Get some self respect!
ok let's do it together!!
I think your taking a narrow view of why people are out of work!
its up to you.
you should be lucky you have a job. i apply for 5 or more a week and i cant get one. i aint on the dole by choice
id much rather be working.
Why should you give a sh*t?? Because you are better than them! Don't go down to their level! Then at least YOU can hold your head up high!
You'll get more money on the dole too I'll bet. I mean I work on a checkout and I think if I just have a baby then I'll be loaded. England should set up a system where you actually have an incentive to work, I should so be Prime Minister!
Do it, see how long you can manage. No skin off my nose.
Go for it, I've worked my a'ss off for years only to watch the unemployed drinking my hard earned money in a beer garden on a nice summers day. I only dream of doing that. But i do know people who really do want to work but can't find anything.
I've worked enough too but I need to pay the mortgage.
I think you will find they are mostly illegals ur paying for,there is almost no white people where I live well there is but their polish..some of these immigrants have nice big houses,6 or 7 kids & a nice car outside & get hundreds in benefits a week,I see em queuing up in the post office when Im paying my bills,personally I dont mind if u stop working & take back what u paid in.
Yeah try it, great, what an attitude, do you really think it is that easy ?
It will create a job opportunity for someone who deserves it, so please `go for it` .
Men like you should continue working so that the world still has some class left. No one likes a dole dosser and men like you stand out with distinction when you have a job!
Sorry about you hurting yourself but if you are entitled to claim it then get it .
Don't quit, go sick and whilst sick go out begging with a half empty bottle of white lightning and a skinny dog on a bit of string, if you earn enough begging then quit your job and sign on
Do what you feel you have to but remember that you are the one who has to look in the mirror every day.
How much respect for yourself would you have is you were a sponger (your word, not mine)?
i dont know about giving up work but what does annoy me is people who have 6,7,8 kids or even more and get more in a year than i can get in full time employment
there should be a decreasing child allowance after 4 to stop these irresponsible people from exploiting what i call the BUNNY RULE

F*** like a bunny to make more money

that said im outa here
