sarcasm and will power are skills in todays job market

According to todays PM, I come under the label of Government leech dependant on taxpayers money to live a life of luxury and debilitating laziness.


Actually I would like to say that I am actively searching for work on a daily basis and my money is around 75% saved with the rest of it going towards food. So up yours Government prigs.

However, I was told that I am mandated to go and complete an 'employability' course to teach me how to find a job, write a CV, spell my name and get paid pittance for 18+ years of education.

After attending just 1 day of this 'course' I am already gnashing my teeth at some of the inadequacies of my so called tutor. First, we start 25 minutes late, then he spends every other minute for the next 45 texting on his phone. He then proceeds to inform us that he is also unorganised in that he forgot half the paperwork and has had to send his poor assistant to Islington to go pick it up (we are in Barking). 3/11 (not including me) of the other 'students' don't speak/write/read fluent English, 1/11 has dyslexia and has already done the course with City and Guild but in prison, 1/11 has already done the course and has no idea why she is there, and 4/11 can't even spell their own names.


Its been years since I have been top of the class but this is just ridiculous, I don't even have to do anything other than write my own name, correctly. How these people are expected to even perform is beyond my ken.
We are told to take a English literacy test... we have 35 minutes. I am finished in 7... and I got the highest score.
I MEAN WTF... it was like sitting a level 1 SAT test. what was the point, this was supposed to be a EL3 level (English literacy level 3). And I have to do this every day until Friday...


I. AM. GOING. TO. KILL. SOMETHING. SMALL. AND. FLUFFY!


If I make it to the end of the week without causing someone severe mental disorientation with the verbal bashing that is brewing within, I will officially become a believer in miracles.

I do have the will power to survive, I will do this. But my skill with sarcasm is definitely going to take some throwing around.

The voices and I agree that we are frustrated with todays jobmarket but we will survive.
