Drugs Task Forces were set up the 1990s as responses to drugs problems in the country.They work in conjunction with state and voluntary agencies.

The idea behind them is to bring an umbrella process or a response to drugs problems in Irish society.

I think there is nine drugs task forces involved with about 250 groups.

I dont work for a drugs task force, I work for a charity.

I work , get a wage and structured training.

No, every single post I,ve made , you picked at , disputed , argued over

yet if you actually think about it , if I was making up fairy tales they would amongst the most bizarre and detailed that have ever been posted on AH .

I get paid every single week , expenses paid, in house and external training and educational opportunities from scholarships if I meet criteria.

You,ve tried everything, now you,re showing your arrogance by sneering.FAS doesn't pay CE workers.

[christmas2012]

how much do you get paid?
when i was on mine i got 220

[mattjack]

Im married and have kids , so I get an allowance for them and my wife.All travel is paid for too ,

[christmas2012]

so let me get this straight you work for a charity as a fas worker,you get all travel paid for yourself and your family?

Tbh I had a look over the last few pages of this thread and the BS is you being involved with FAS/CE or else you were and were very bad at it, as you seem to know very little about it. Mattjack provides you with comprehensive and detailed answers every time yet you relentlessly troll and troll.

Apologies if I am confused, but isn't a CE scheme like the scheme where you do something in the community like be a caretaker for your loacal school or club.

And it's not free labour. The people get paid for doing them. If you ae referring to the fact that you might not get much more than on the dole, then please remember that the purpose of the dole is to tide you over until you can find a job. That's the purpose behind it. i'm not saying it's easy to get off it, I'm just saying that that is what it is for.
If I was unemployed for a while, I think I'd get at least some satisfaction from doing something constructive. So what if I was only getting a few quid more a week.

Think how much better the country would be if all the people who were on the dole, used that time to give back to the community! Getting involved in tidy-towns, supervising after school activities for kids etc. You'll say that this should not be done because you think it's stealing someone's job. But it's not. There are hundreds of people doing this stuff around the country voluntarily anyway. They provide immense services that wouldn't be provided otherwise.

I've met graduates from some of the best colleges in the world who are willing to go to "intern" for free for months at top companies. Top companies who are extremely wealthy. There the interns answer phones/make tea/do photocopying. But the positions are extremely sought after and hard won because the exposure to the real-life working environment gets them on the ladder. Even though they are doing almost menial tasks. Don't knock any work experience!
