      Job centre staff receive training on how to be as ignorant and rude as possible, it takes really skill.

      I had one try to make me go work on a construction site, despite the fact I’d told them loads of times that I tenden problems in my hand, and can’t really grip things. They said I was just lazy, I’d have dropped tools on everyone’s heads, it would be a nightmare.
