Firms paid to wake jobless teenagers!
Ye gods..you couldn't make this stuff up...and they drive them to interviews too!!: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-18916683
Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.

RE: Firms paid to wake jobless teenagers!
Charities and businesses selected will be paid by results.
55,000 Neet youngsters at £2200 a pop.
That's potentially £121,000,000 in someones pocket.
Call me cynical but someone's going to be VERY rich and it won't be the kids.

RE: Firms paid to wake jobless teenagers!
This is where governments are fleeced by everyone. They set targets that are nothing to do with what is required. But when they tick the boxes they get paid. It is the result of thinking you can control large groups of people by setting rules and making laws. They really are useless.

RE: Firms paid to wake jobless teenagers!
This is idiotic beyond belief.
Any teen who needs a 3rd party to wake them up and take them to interviews clearly doesn't give a shit about actually getting (or more importantly, keeping) a job. Which ultimately makes this an epic waste of money.

The Social Welfare State, the system that punishes and penalises those who are honest , diligent and hard working and rewards the parasites, feckless and idle. If a civil war ever broke out again I'd be no use to the rightous forces of self reliance cos i would sprend all my time killing socialists and trade unionists.

RE: Firms paid to wake jobless teenagers!
Shocking! Don't give them alarm clocks or anything else! If they cannot get out of their steaming pits to a ttend interviews or work, the answer is quite clear ... STOP ALL OF THEIR BENEFITS IMMEDIATELY! I just can't believe the insanity of it!
Oh it gives me such a warm glow inside to think how we look after the 'poor litte unvfortunates' of our fabulously inclusive, understanding and marvellously tolerant society ... NOT! It sickens me to the core.
