New Deal and Flexible New Deal Exposed

hello my name is louisa i am 20 years old and i am still going to new deal AFTER i made a complant about one of the stuff calling ME A SLAG. i have been into the jobcenter and i have see leflets about new deal and it says u DONT have to go to new deal if u dont want to well i say bullshit at one point i thought i was p…regnant one day i was late because i have a long way to go by bus and when i got there i just finished having somthing to eat when the stuff looked at me and said (put that away before i put it in the bin) and i said to them (sorry but i’v had nuffin to eat and i might be pregnant) and they said I DONT CARE

THIS HAS TO STOP I AM UNDER ALOT OF STRESS AT THE MOMENT i have to go from southampton to portsmouths and i have to be there by 9 in the morning by BUS

some points raised here are of interest.

if there is a plan to “volunteering” many paid jobs would be lost,the government would be only to aware that there would be no shortage of free labour under the “volunteer” unemployed system it proposes.
this volunteering is nothing new and all courses for the unemployed tend to focus heavily on this as an outcome,however what is overlooked is the organisations that depend on it are completely full.

if not careful the fold from new deal could well result into collapsed into the same hole as it.

Hi Everyone thought I would fill you in on the final straw.

My benefits were screwed up, i phoned a week later and they had not authorised em. they apologised and putthe money in the same day,

I then proceeded to ask for 28p back for the phone call.
three first class letters on yellow paper
one second class on white paper and small print, just to pay me 28 pence is it me or is that excessive and borderline taking the peee

I must agree with your original poster.
Just like every other day been on the directgov jobsearch section, entered Gravesend (my local town), click show all jobs, “Your search has produced more than 100 results” so it shows me only the first 100.
Refine search to within 1 mile and still over 100 jobs. Refine again to todays jobs within 1 mile and AHHH. 27 jobs available. Thats more like it… Hang on…
Morecambe thats 275 miles away.
Llandudno 278 miles
Lemington Spa 124 miles
Carlisle 333 miles
Out of 27 jobs listed as new vacancies within 1 mile of my location today only FOUR are actually within 50 miles of my home

The way the jobcentre is ran is pathetic they expect you to apply for phantom jobs for a start! The trainining courses they offer are of no use to the majority what so ever im sure what they do offer are helpfull to some but what about those who want to aim higher and be able to apply for the only vacancys they can that are just out of reach in a qualification sense but clearly cannot afford a private course? But are willing to learn and better themselves to be more competetive in the job market if you can call it that?
And the folks that work in there seem to have no thought for human existence at the click of a few buttons they can really make your life a living hell and i do know by experience some of these people do have a god complex and know damn well the power they possess its sickening maybe they should have some kind of psych test before they take them on?
And then make them live in our shoes for a month see what its like the other side of the desk eh?
I wonder what there going to make of me being a pre-op Ts i should think thats gonna bring some prejudice out the bag! Well if it does they will be exposed!

It’s okay, Kyron. We all have our own opinion.
