  Hang on - I had a brief period between jobs a while back and had no intention of not working. Found a job within a short period and knew I would, but out of curiousity and a touch of bloodymindedness visited the jobcentre. I realised I would probably not be entitled to anything and didn't want it anyway (what with having paid into the system for years and all...) but what I saw appalled me. I went twice, once to make an appointment and once to cancel it having secured a good job. Each time I went there were people being abusive to the guys working in there, with little or no provocation from what I could see. One guy was an hour late for an afternoon appt because he overslept........another woman was on the FREE phone to some poor blighter yelling at him because he couldn't get her FREE washing machine to her instantly and didn't he know she had 5 kids to wash for - her language was enough to merit a turn in the machine for all its filth.........and frankly I would not have employed most of them for reasons varying from their odour to their idiocy. I am an old leftie, remember, and liable to be cuddly and fluffy if not careful, so be aware that it would have been outrageously bad for me to depart from that!!!
