Mr Willy
Am I allowed to continue claiming JSA to supplement my weekly income up to £56 - ie, £31 - or do I have to come off benefits completely? It'll be a pain to have such a huge reduction in my weekly income given that I pay £10 a week 'rent', £10 a week for university payments (residency deposit) and at least £5 on food and drink. The only real advantage of this job, over than retail experience, is that I'll be working in my village so I won't have to pay money to the bastards who run our public transport system.
I'm also worried that if I turn the job down, I'll lose my benefits anyway. Or does a 'job offer' have to be 16 hours a week?

Flash.
It will be adjusted depending on your part time wages.

Next time you go to sign on, just have a chat about it and it'll be ok. You'll just have to sign a new contract with the Job Centre basically.

I can believe clothing retail not taking you on but I can't believe that a supermarket won't. Some real special chaps work in supermarkets.

The one in Winch is like that too. Apparently they do it on purpose for some reason.

Although if you are actually looking for a part time job or whatever, coming up to christmas pretty much every restuarant/hotel/bar going are looking for staff to work a few days a week but on very long hours. I got a job working at a restaurant serving tables and behind their bar and would surpass 30hours a week working 3 days a week, would get close to £200 a week and have the weekdays to lark about.
Not sure if they still do but the Job Center used to pay businesses to take on those who were otherwise unemployable.

Get a full time job, then come off JSA fully.

What, and get zero experience? Don't be so fucking stupid.
Employers will look more favourably on someone who has been working 3 days work and claiming JSA compared to some lazy cunt who's sat on the JSA doing 0 hours work.

That's the most retarded thing you've said since you said that PCs were going to die out in the next 5 years.

But its true. Even if you get a part time job for 16 hours, you'll still have to sign on, meaning its gonna clash with your job if you work on that day, and still your only getting the same amount of money.
Jason
Oh sorry, i'll do 16 hours a week for £56, the same amount as millions of people are getting, on JSA, oh and i have to sign on too, just for a bit of experience. Personally, if i was on JSA, i wouldn't be even considering part time work, if somebody will take you on part time without experience, there will be plenty that will full time, too.
£56 a week on or not on JSA is fuck all, and if you live on your own, will pay fuck all, the average household spends £30 a week on food, leaving £36 out of £56.
I mean, i live on my own, and i struggle on a wage of £240 per week, i think i'd die in the first week of living on £56p/w.

MATHS!
Your points are also stupid
Jason
Was a typo, obviously it was supposed to say £26.

If you really don't understand how doing a part time job is better than just signing on then you have problems which I can't help you with.
Jason
Im not saying i don't understand, im just saying its pretty pointless, from a life perspective. Doing 16 hours a week ffor the same £56 as doing nothing for a week, doesn't seem appealing, i'd much rather try and push for a permanent job which gives me £200 + per week.
Phoenix Arrow
Then you make very bad decisions.
