    I was in the same boat as you for 5 years. I worked PT throughout my entire college life and it got me by. I needed very little money off my folks. I only copped on to a grant in my final year (didn't think i'd be eligible all along - turns out I was), so that helped too.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 96 ✭✭|MarK|

    Yore Ma is on the dole.
    Which is scabby because she has a job - she's also on the game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,932 ✭✭✭The Saint


    I signed on last Monday. It was a depressing experience.
    About 300 people Queuing, mostly the intellectually challenged and socially inept.
    Was it comforting to be amongst your own.?:P You know what they say, In the land of the blind the one eyed man is king. Only messin.

    Anyhoo, not on the dole. Dossing through some college for the year.

    No, I don't study english. So what, I missed a few commas? Maybe, if I wasn't so busy with part-time work, I would have more time to relax and get a grasp of the english language.

    GRAMMAR QUEENS!


    Personally, I didn't learn how to speak english properly working part-time in a garage. I also didn't learn how in my spare time away from the garage.

    Loads of students don't bother learning in college and smoke hash. How are we to know you aren't one of them? You don't even know when to use the words "they're" and "there". Are you high right now?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,555 ✭✭✭✭AckwelFoley


    THE DOLE IS FOR LOSERS!



    I personally decided to choose the "Job seekers allowance" :o

    Grammer Queens, will you all settle down. He's not trying to get his work published. Anyway, OP I'm drawing, and have been for couple of months. But all that will end on February 2nd. as I have finally got myself a new job. Thankfully.

    The idea is that students have grants to cover college costs. Obviously, that's not how they work out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,259 ✭✭✭Shiny


    Was on it this summer, couldn't find work and went back to college.
    Little did I know the **** was going to hit the fan and it will be ten
    times worse when I finish this time.:mad:
