What a blessed reliefffffffffffffffffffffffff!
Just arrived back with aching feets from the Job Centre/Unemployment Office (it's around 2 miles away) after signing off Job Squeakers' Allowance (Dole) for good and onto Pension Credit - the government's marvellous new way of getting unemployable old farts like me off the unemployment statistics - which consists of twice as much per week as the Dole plus full Housing and Council Tax Benefits - and with ***no compulsion to look for work anymore!! (v.b.) Good, innit?!!! - AND I also get the old fogey's official badge of honour: a free bus and London Underground/Docklands Light Railway pass, AND a winter fuel supplement of, I believe, around £200. These last two used only to be available to men over 65! I don't often find anything nice to say about our damned government but in spite of their rather obvious ulterior motive, for once I can compliment them on being quite generous!! I have also just had the very great pleasure removing all but a very few essential pieces of the job-seeking stuff from my PC and the associated paperwork from my flies - I mean my files. There ain't room in there! ;o) - and un-subscribing from the jobs bulletins from all the various agencies I *was* with - most of which have proved pretty-well useless! For: "We regret to inform you that your experience and skills are insufficient for the post in question," read, "You're 59!!! Sod off old fart!!!! Ohhhhhhhhhh! Happy days are here again, Nemo's time is all his own again, No more work to make him groan again! Happy days are here again! Trials and troubles are gone! There's no more damned signing on!!!! Ohhhhhh . . . Happy days are here again, The right-wing sods can-be-jealous-again, But no-way-can-they call me a scrounger again! *** Happy days are here again! Oi! Aardvark never did anyone any harm?? Go ask an ant! Ohhhh! It's really like being in heaven, to retire in 2007!! |

A male patient is lying in bed in the hospital, wearing an oxygen mask
over his mouth and nose, still heavily sedated from a difficult four hour, surgical procedure. A young, student nurse appears to give him a partial sponge bath. "Nurse", he mumbles, from behind the mask. "Are my testicles black?" Embarrassed, the young nurse replies, "I don't know, Sir. I'm only here to wash your upper body and feet. " He struggles to ask again, "Nurse, are my testicles black?" Concerned that he may elevate his vitals from worry about his testicles, she overcomes her embarrassment and sheepishly pulls back the covers. She raises his gown, holds his penis in one hand and his testicles in the other, lifting and moving them around. Then, she takes a close look and says, "There's nothing wrong with them, Sir." The man pulls off his oxygen mask, smiles at her and says very slowly, "Thank you very much.

This ambitionless putz "nemo" is scrounging off the welfare state. good for you--it is nice to retire with a few bucks A few bucks earned by taxpayers, not by himself. and still have your health-it pays to be vegan/vegetarian This is one of the most ridiculous things you've ever said. His wealth -- taken by the State from the working class and given to people in the beggar class -- has nothing to do with his choice of diet (in fact, look at his past posts about his health and you'll see his diet isn't exactly beneficial; he requires medication and prodding from his doctor to get off his lazy arse). It has to do with his lack of desire to work for a living or to better himself. You really shouldn't be congratulating him for that. ....nomo work for nemo...

It's still sinking in actually. At first I was quite euphoric about it - especially on my way home from my very last visit to the Job Centre *two miles* or so away! - but now I'm beginning to forget sometimes and find myself worrying about doing my own thing when I should be working or staying up late as if I still have to get up early, but I'm told that'll soon pass. You can't ditch a lifetime's conditioning overnight. BTW. That solvent was made illegal in 1997. That's why Tipp-Ex correction fluid changed its smell and disappointed all the little hooligans who used to sniff it! I'd been using the stuff for a good few years by then and, surprise surprise, the only medical problem I might still have left is a very small possibility of Myelodysplasia causing enlarged red blood cells and too many of them. They're still looking into it. I still feel pretty good for my age though. The real advantage of being Vegan has been the large amount of knowledge of nutrition I've gained over the years, and I've also become a pretty good cook although I say so myself. So while many of my fellow unemployed poor sods have been living on unhealthy expensive take-aways and prepared foods, I've been living very well and very cheaply indeed on the pittance of £57 PW Dole money, sometimes to the annoyance of the people at the Job Centre when they've asked me how I've been managing. That's why on twice that much I'll be able to afford the odd luxury and even save a little each week. So I'll say it again! Ohhhh! It's really like being in heaven, to retire in 2007!!

This ambitionless putz "nemo" is scrounging off the welfare state. Isle Of Wight??? And how do you know, du kleiner dreckicher momser?? Just because I gloat a little bit? Go and stick your damned troll head up a dead bears bum! DI've done nothing at all illegal and I've never accepted anything I was not entitled to. What's the point of a Welfare State is everyone who finds themselves requiring assistance from it automatically gets slagged off as a scrounger? I've done everything required of me by Law and more to try to find work and retain my entitlement to Benefit and actually did find a couple of bits of work - assembling audio cables in a sweatshop for a few weeks and three weeks as a casual sorter fro Royal Mail at Mount Pleasant (which wasn't!) two Christmases ago. Damned hard work but enjoyable, and pretty well paid. Unfortunately there were no permanent vacancies going and the working environment was atrocious. I've been on numerous training courses including two admin courses for posts at Great Ormond Street Hospital - about the best place in the world anyone could want to work in, registered with eight agencies, most of which specialised in jobs in the charity sector, been on several other intensive recruitment drives, lost count of all teh applications I've put in, and in spite of all that, all my efforts fell on stony ground. There are these things called ageism and bad luck you see. So OK. After misfortune like that, now that things are getting better I've been gloating a bit. Why not? It's been a long time and I'm entitled!! good for you--it is nice to retire with a few bucks A few bucks earned by taxpayers, not by himself. Here again with the inaccurate sour grapes. (I'll teach im to call me a putz! ;o) During my working career * I * was one of those taxpayers and it's the money I paid in over all those years of damned hard work that I'm collecting on now. That's what it's there for. Why do so many people find it difficult to grasp this oh- so simple concept? You'll be begrudging me my occupational pension too next. It was paid in for in a more formal way than my taxes were to finance what benefits I might need but it's still money put away for me to collect whe required - for my retirement, and over the 25 or so years it's been in there, it's grown enormously! And when I first started work, taxes National Insurance deductions came to over 1/3rd of your wages!! and still have your health-it pays to be vegan/vegetarian This is one of the most ridiculous things you've ever said. Oh no it isn't! Spin on it, dick head! /´¯/) /¯../ /..../ /´¯/'...'/´¯¯`·¸ /'/.../..../......./¨¯\ ('(...´...´.... ¯~/'...') \.................'...../ ''...\.......... _.·´ \..............( \..............\ His wealth -- taken by the State from the working class and given to people in the beggar class -- has nothing to do with his choice of diet (in fact, look at his past posts about his health and you'll see his diet isn't exactly beneficial; he requires medication and prodding from his doctor to get off his lazy arse). I didn't choose my diet for my health's sake. I was just sickened by the way animals were treated and I wanted as little responsibility for it as possible. The health aspects are just a useful by-product. And my arse isn't lazy. It's just as energetic as the rest of me - otherwise my legs wouldn't work! And even the middle one still works very well for my age - especially after some peanuts or a curry with a good bit of Asafoetida in it! And before you're tempted to do the obvious insulting hand-gesture - you're wrong. I use an appliance!! ;o) It has to do with his lack of desire to work for a living or to better himself. No need to better myself. I'm good enough already! You really shouldn't be congratulating him for that. Leave him alone already! If to congratulate me he wants he's perfectly welcome. Each of his words of encouragement is worth a million of your bigoted fascist rubbish whinges and whines! In fact: I think you are Margaret Thatcher AICMFP! Except she'd want to tax me on it! Must be terrible to be as ill-informed, bitter and jealous as that - or if it's all an act, to be such a nasty little mischief-maker!

Actually, Robbin' Hood stole from everyone including the poor - and kept it, just like your average Crapitalist nowadays! Nemo. Ohhhh! It's really like being in heaven, to retire in 2007!! Ohhhh!
