Okay, this is rather strange and I can't quite believe it.
Apparently, me and 25 other people who claim either jsa or income support at our local job centre are having our claim stopped for a fortnight due to an expense that a new job centre employee brought.
The new employee apparently weighs 30stone and needs a chair made for her out of re-inforced titanium because the current one cannot withstand the weight. The cost is thought to be over £2000 for the chair alone and labour costing upwards of £500 means 7 other unexpecting 'job seekers' who haven't yet been informed of the madness also have two weeks with no money!
I for one, cannot see why this should come out of seemingly random people's money that they're intitled to...they should have thought about the problem before employing such an overweight heffer.
I will be going to the local citizens advice bureaux tomorrow with a few others to try and see if the job centre has the right to do this stupidity.
