Where are the Workers

Begging seem to have become a new career in this 21st  century.  My pay check got smaller this year because of tax increases. I notice more and more people are lying around doing nothing.

We all have talents and abilities that can be useful, helpful and profitable.
Where are all the working people what's happening to them?
Are they lost in cyber space?

The problem is too many people having jobs that don't produce anything.............talk jobs.....boss jobs.....

If nothing is being produced.....then its not productive?

A very bright young girl I know has a good degree and the only job she was offered was in a call centre.



While I'm on my soap box - I am horrified that the government has closed down the Remploy workshops (supported workplaces for disabled people) because they are not profitable enough.  There was a lovely lady on the TV who was in floods of tears because her workshop has closed and she has to find a job in normal employment.  If able bodied people are not able to find work, what chance do disabled people have?  Also, it is not just a job to them, it is their support and also where their friends are.  I could weep.

The tax is growing more and more every year on pensions.  Why? When we have paid tax during working years already.  
I have no objections to migrants coming into the country,I have some good friends among them.     But this country just cannot afford to keep more people living on benefits until they find work!    They are taking benefits off some folks who need that money to live on....illness,incapacity to work......disabled etc.
I do try to be fair but the UK is being swamped by too many immigrants entering at the same time.

As I said before,lessen the load a little.....

Nothing wrong with CALL CENTRES... The proper ones that is.. lol lol
We deal with inbound calls only...order lines, booking lines, and emergency calls to engineers and doctors.
Infact  it is the perfect place for some Disabled people to work if their problem is only their mobility.
