This is a question First World Problems

Onemunki says: We live in a world of genuine tragedy, starvation and terror. So, after hearing stories of cruise line passengers complaining at the air conditioning breaking down, what stories of sheer single-minded self-pity get your goat?

In places I agree
The "Working for free" is arse, since they're still being paid benefits.
The concern is they're being paid benefits from the public purse and working for a private concern who are getting that labour for free.

Should that private concern contribute to the the benefit payment of people on placement I'd feel less irritated by the practice.
As is it's encouraging companies to sack low grade employees, knowing that they can call on the same people and their skills for no outlay once they register at the Job Center.
