There seems to be an increase in these sort of people; you know the sort the people who blame everybody else for their own missfortune when they are lazy wasters!

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-17015699

The guy lives in a pig sty, he looks like a tramp and he’s complaining that he can’t get a job.

Listen to the audio he’s a perfect example of a “chronic victim”.. He’s got child-like excuses for everything, he even complains that his own kitchen is a mess!

No doubt moddy-coddled by his parents.

*EDIT*

The plot thickens! They were talking about this again on Radio 1 last night and they interviewed him last year before and after he went for a job interview: They offered him the job at the time but he turned it down!

WHAT A CUNT

I heard that Ben Gillet on the radio yesterday.

He's basically left school, obviously a completely unemployable retard, sits about playing his xbox all day then complains there's no jobs.

He's got some A-Levels.. And I get the impression he wants to be a chemist. Maybe he needs to take what he can get and work from there.

What a waste of tax money he is.

Exactly, that's nice for him to want to be XYZ, not getting a job doing that instantly is not a good excuse for sitting about playing COD all day wasting my tax.

Plenty of jobs out there just that the lazy bums won't do them.

I bump into a few job seekers with my job. Was speaking to a guy the other week who compained there was no jobs and foreigners were taking them all.

I told him I could get him a job in a hotel as a Kitchen Porter straight away. He said he wasn't willing to wash dishes.

Fuck him. Lazy cunt. A jobs a job.

Just listened to him on R1.

Comes across all high and mighty which pissed me off. Plus if someone came to me looking like that i wouldn't employ them, looks like he's homeless.

If you cant find a paid job go volunteer somewhere, prove your worth and you will have a higher chance of being given a job. Even if you dont, at least you can put it on your CV that youve been working unpaid so you dont look like a lowlife waster.

I agree with what's said, etc. but it's far too easy to say "they should do this n that" when you're already comfortable in the job you want to do. Take your cushty job out of the equasion you've had for years and tell me you'd get a job at Tesco if there was nothing about. Doubt a lot would. I mean, take John for example, I don't know you personally but based on your online persona alone, there's no way you'd be stacking shelves.

If I was in the position where it was sit at home smoking or work in Tesco, I'd work in Tesco. Obviously I hope it doesn't happen but if it came to it I would.

You're a hero tho Ben, I know that already mate.

It's hardly worth working at Tesco, blame the government. You can get housing, tax and benefits all paid for, you could work at Tesco full time, get none of that benefit and after paying those bits you're now not getting you'll have £30 at best to play with, oh and of course your precious dignity.

It depends Brett, so far I've had enough skill and qualifications to be fairly picky about where I work. If I didn't have a house I could have and did get away with being out of work.

Now I've got a mortgage I won't have a choice, if something happened I'd need a job.

I worked at ASDA while at uni and it's certainly not bad, I wouldn't want to do that as a life long career but I'd have no problem doing it to pay my mortgage while looking for something better.

I know a lad who went to college and got some A-Levels and CCNA certification and decided from there he wanted to be a network engineer somewhere.

Nobody in their right mind will take him on for obvious reasons, he needs experience and he isn't willing to start at the bottom in a helpdesk or tech support role so as a result he's been jobless for about 5 years now... every month that passes by his CV looks worse and worse.

TBH Brett, i can see why you'd say tha. Some people may feel ashamed they have come from a high paid job to miinimum wage but imo there is more pride in taking that job rather than sitting on your arse thinking your too good to stack shelves.

This is why the country is full of lazy, jobless, benefit claiming cunts.

Yeah great, doing what you do all the time. Take what you normally do, anything inside your comfort zone completely out of the equasion, there is no work doing that, just Tesco.

Like I said, I'm not defending these people, I can see both sides, like usual.

I spoke to a guy from school about that recently, he's actually got some crap engineering degree but he's decided that IT must be easy. Went to night school and got a CCNA, basically never looked at a computer in his life and expects to get a support job.

I think on the most part it's nothing more than jealousy. These people get to chill all day and do what they want on the most part, money permitting. I'd choose that over pride, which means jack.

Defo, I've got so much stuff I'd like to read/watch /do if I had all day to do it. It shouldn't be possible to get away with it then we wouldn't have the issue at all.

Yeah they're two options amongst many - but unless he gets gifted his "perfect job" he's not interested - and as a result is a complete waster.

Of course he makes excuses all day long like the guy in the BBC article - fact is he needs to go answer some phones on a helpdesk for a year or so, show interest in the network side of the business he's working for then take it from there. His CCNA is worth shit now, hell mine is worth shit even with 7 years of experience to go with it

I couldn't do it for any extended period of time though.

And you have to start at the bottom, I did, my first job was shit and the pay was even worse.
