    I'm jumping out of my skin at this point to just WORK. (Partly the humour I'm in right now!). But that's how it feels. I just want to do something, anything. I feel like walking in the door of every place I pass and saying "could you just give me a job please, I'll do absolutely anything.Just let me work, feck the money".

    That's how it feels when you're desperate for a job.And then you've to listen to people whinging about what they do all day vs what they get paid.It's....well, honestly, there's just no words for it.

    Dan, if you are looking to get out of the house, there are plenty voluntary organisations who are always looking for help.

    And then you get a job and then you start to question your pay.

    More nonsense you hear from the certain unemployed.sorry pal I know it's hard being unemployed and was there myself but that's just crap. If your willing to work for nothing or next to any way you'll definitely find work. That's what really annoys me about people who say that. I bet you'd be the most vocal person there whinging about his pay after a couple of months into the job. There's plenty of work out there if you want it. That's the problem the dole is too high, no incentive to go out and do an honest days work.

    So all these guys are wrong because you say so, obviously. You are seriously in denial. I suppose you will choose not to believe their explanations of their outgoings as well. That's your loss though, I can see you having a sad bitter life.


    Personally myself and my missus rent a 4 bed house outside of Galway for 600 a month, utilities are very low as well, have sky, internet, mobiles two cars, get out for dinners, coffees, pub, going to Life festival next weekend, holiday in Malta in 3 weeks and all this on E10 an hour.

    I spent 9 months on the dole last year and didn't claim rent allowance and still managed to pay my rent, keep the car, get out etc.




    All i can say If that isn't proof that social welfare should be cut I don't know what is?? Ridiculous all that on ten euro an hour, utterly ridiculous statement. Are we meant to be impressed, And so you shouldnt of claimed rent allowance. that's know ridiculous things have become in Ireland life of Riley when your on the dole
