Always makes me chuckle when people say there are no jobs out there. But I know quite a few people and I get a lot of job offers. Also LinkedIn has given me a few job offers and all I have so far is a half hearted CV that I put no effort into. The works out there you just need to look for it.
I Agree, there is always the work if you are willing to look for it, and you dont mind what you have to do to get it, such as work unsociable shifts, communte or move away.
I have to say, that although I know that I could get a job per se, staking shelves or packing sandwiches into cartons, I prefer staying unemployed at the moment because if I did get a job, I would lose funding for my college & uni courses(and these are that expensive that I would not ba able to afford them if I was in full time work). I dont see this as scrounging as I am making an effort to further my employerbility and, to keep myself in work once I am employed, this I feel, is commendable in anyone doing it.
On the other hand, people that live on state handouts, do sweet FA about finding gainful employment(except a bit of cash in hand work off the books) then sit on their jacksie collecting benefits and whinging about the "insert migrant labour group here" taking all the jobs. I feel this is a tad un acseptable, and I have to say, although it may make me a hippocrite I think these are the lowest of the low.
