Brutal Deluxe what exactly are you looking for in a job?

Just for the record what types of jobs are you looking for and what exactly are your qualifications?

Also how old are you? I'm just curious to understand your position in the job market currently.

No, but I don't see any issue with cycling through Terenure at 3am.

Is that the latest excuse for not taking a job?

Meanwhile we've become a nation of lazy decadent f..kwits. Sad really.

PayPal couldn't fill 500 of those 1,000 jobs that they created because Irish people don't have the language skills. How many people on the dole ate learning a foreign language? Not many I'm guessing.

Tell you what, when they offer me the job and I refuse it, then we'll do that.

Till then I'm obeying the rules.

I love how insulting some people are towards anyone who doesn't want to take a horrible job. Yes, cycling around at 3AM through the streets of Dublin is a horrible job.

Ah, the kernel of the argument.

You actually don't want to work because your dole's too high.

Your dole should be cut to approximately 50% of what you'd make from one of these jobs that you're happy to turn your nose up at.

Why is it whenever I see a thread on unemployment on Boards, there are always posters claiming that the jobs crisis isn't real because "There are jobs in such-and-such an establishment down the road from me." Yeah, because the local Eddie Rocket's has a "Staff Wanted" sign in the window, there's no crisis...congrats, unlike the Govt, the EU, the IMF, and a raft of independent expert commentators and analysts, you've figured it all out, because you saw some signs in a few fast food joints and cafe windows. Don't be ****ing stupid.

Tombi!

No, it wouldn't. Considering for a good while I was on 90 euro a week, I wouldn't care.

You know why? Because at the end of the day, I follow the rules. If you were incharge, yes, we can get your "work jobs I demand you to or piss off out of the country to work".

But luckily, you're not incharge so you can bitch and moan at me all you like but at the end of the day (again), I'm perfectly content.

Your benefits should actually be cut to zero.

This thread is full of posts referring to scroungers, people milking the system, people who prefer to be on the dole and people who refuse to work.

Unfortunately, that's you.

Apply for the job in the chipper and take it if you get it. If you don't, you're a disgrace.

when there's 26k jobs and 1k jobs been created a week and we're still having to go outside ireland to get skilled workers this is not a job crisis it's a skills crisis.

people need to upskill and start taking the jobs that are there.

People should be clawing to get off the dole and back into the workplace.

@kinski

The employment situation obviously isn't going to be solved by the jobs that are available in the fast food sector.

But their availability is a symptom of the deeper and wider problem - That many unemployed Irish people see themselves as being above such roles.

No unemployed person should be above working in a fast food outlet. And as for stuff like "it's not safe to get from Terenure to Dublin 1 at 3am"? Any inspector worth his salt should write "cut benefits by 50% across the file of such a person.

Oh I never said that. I said I'm content. My apologies that I'm not suffering and eating the scraps of food from the plates of people with jobs or I'm not having to buy X brand junkfood from Lidl.

I am content in knowing that I am not breaking any rules and I am content to remain that way until I find a job.

But yes, I'm content in not breaking the rules and looking for a job.

As for what is wrong, I'd wager it's people not having a clue about the dole and people begrudging everyone on it.

Brutal Deluxe you are exctaly the type of waster that gives all the other's who actually need the dole a bad name.

The bike bit might be correct, I haven't ridden on in years.

But yeah, call me a waster but I follow the rules so... I'm not a waster and the SW don't think of me either.

Feel free to insult me though. I don't care.

The rules should therefore be changed so you cannot milk the system while looking for the job of your dreams and turning down less prestigious roles in the meantime.

The IMF are right...beggars cannot be choosers...you need to realise that and if you don't then you need to be forced to realise that by having your benefits slashed.

Brutal Deluxe, are you too overly qualified for these jobs in your opinion or why would you not take one to get off the cycle of the dole?

No, hang a fúcking minute. YOU need to realize that I am not a robot. Nobody is. You don't get to say "well, he won't cycle out to some place at 3AM and go through the streets filled with fights and drunken idiots, clearly he has it too good".

But sure, I'm waiting on my lovely dream job.

And in this dream job I'll be making more money than I get currently. And I really milk the system. Good idea, I might try getting some free sleeping pills and sell them.

Grow up and realize you're just on your high horse and have no idea how it is on the bottom rung.

Heh, overly qualified. Sorry, but that did make me smile :P
I think anyone who says that should be shot.

I don't mind any job (bar comission only ones, for obvious reasons). I also won't take one that won't give me as much money as I get currently. I mean if I'm being told "you need lunch, travel fair, etc" and you'll make between 100-150 a week (at best), there's no point in taking it.

It's not a case of "it's too much on the dole". It's a case of "there isn't enough jobs that want workers that earn good money". Good money to me is anything 300 or more a week which is less than full time but a lot more than the dole. At least on minimum wage?

How Irish.

You aren't on the bottom rung if you're happy to dismiss a job 'cause it'd involve the terrible hardship of a 15 minute cycle at 3am.

O me miserum...woe is me.

The lads who worked 60 hours a week in Kilburn or NYC are probably turnIng in their graves.

The dole should never be an option, only a last resort. For you, it's an option and that sir reflects very badly on you.

Apply for the job in Dino's.

Presumably you'll get at least the minimum wage (€8.65?)? You might also get free or discounted food.

A standard 38 hour week should yield you €300 a week after deductions and you'll have the self respect from working rather than leeching.

You had me till the bolded part.

I like how you think I'm leeching. But hey, I'm done. I know you hate me. I know you think I'm scum/leech/scrounger/etc.

But you can guarantee I follow the rules. I don't try to con more than I deserve.

So that's that. I can't say anything that'll help you since you have your mind made up about anyone on the dole who is able to survive. If I was out on the streets, maybe you'd be happy. Maybe that wouldn't be good enough. But I'm not a leech, at least not what the state says anyhow.

scdublin

I was asking did YOU think you were too overly qualified, because that seems to be the ridiculous reason a lot of people give for not taking jobs available these days.

I see your point in a way, not a lot of people will give up the dole for a job that won't match or exceed the amount they get. But I can also see the other side of the argument, would you not prefer to be earning the money you get even if it was slightly less? Unless your circumstances were difficult where you literally couldn't afford to eat/have somewhere to live without that exact amount of money, I think it's difficult to fully agree with you.

I'm definitely a believer in getting more experience in your field or the field you want to go into...have you looked into internships? I took on an unpaid internship when I got fed up of getting nowhere with job applications (had no experience obviously so wasn't getting a look in), and I got a full time job in another company not too long afterwards.

I know you were. It just made me laugh (not in a condescending way, but I don't think I've ever heard anyone call me cocky before, not that you were).

The thing is, you can view me as someone who feels they are entitled. And I do feel that way. I don't think anyone should work for less than what they would get on the dole. Regardless of if it's minimum wage or not. It's still insulting and disappointing to know "instead of working today, you coudl have been out looking for a job".

One of the worse times was when I switched from the dole to a part time job with shifts.

Completely crushing it was to get home 100-120 a week when your friends are getting 188 for doing "nothing".

Trust me, I know that feeling all too well. I remember working my ass off doing shifts in a shop, to save for my first car and insurance etc. One of my college friends turns up at my house in a near to new car, and when I asked her how she afforded it she said "saved my money on the dole for a few weeks".....a few weeks and there was I working for months to get an old car. But was it worth it? Absolutely! I was on €7 an hour back then, coming out with waaaay less than what I would have on the dole...but it's about the choices you make at the end of the day to be honest.

The worse part was going from the dole to that job. I was absolutely begging to be told "we don't want you" (which they did thankfully). The choices for me are easy to make: what's better, A or B. A gets me more money and lets me look for a job more often. B gets me less money (or sometimes more if I'm very lucky) and it's harder to get a job.

I go with A.

I meant what I said. Not meant to be an insult, but this country would be far far better without the likes of you and from the sounds of it, your friends.

So you are actively looking for a job? What sort of work do you want to do? Not including how much money you'll make etc....that's not the best way to decide what you should do. And do you have skills/education/training that will make you appealing to an employer in this area of work?

Ah here we go again..every thread on Boards that involves discussing the Economy or Welfare system ends up the same: Bitter, angry, prejudiced, stereotyping ignorance about welfare recipients on the right - Bitter, angry, frustrated, belittled and unemployed welfare recipients on the right..with a sprinkling of people who actually would like to have an adult discussion without having to resort to name calling..Both sides feel and have been jilted bar the odd few degenerates in Society that should not be used as a brush with which to tar an extremely large demographic. This attitude isn't going to get people anywhere, 'Together we fall divided we stand'.

I'm not talking about my personal situation. But suffice to say I am doing what I can. Though I will admit, my options limit me alot but again, that's personal.

Still, though, I am actively looking for a job to the best of the current situation

Sparks, no need to let me know, I wouldnt' be able to afford the trip and rent!
