Hope it goes ok browser..following my stint off work late last year, i frequented the Jobcentre in P'boro for a few weeks. It isnt that bad actually, a bit of a conveyor belt, but no biggie, no bad behaviour...nothing really.
Is it the power station ? I see the ET has a piece on it,
Re the Job Centre.
In my case they told me I wasn't eligible for JSA because I had savings. In fact JSA is in 2 parts: Income-based is not payable to those with savings above £16k but contribution based is payable regardless if you have contributed NI for the last 2 years which I had (nearly 30 years, in fact). So their 'advice' was a lie and their attitude seemed to be modelled on the Daily M4il school of thinking. No problems with my fellow job seekers! In my experience, the jobs advertised at the Job Centre were a very limited selection of what was available generally. It's advisable to cast your net much more widely than just the job-centre.
