The boyfriend
On the dole, applying for jobs, everything going alright if making him feel a bit down.

Then he sees the jobcentre has changed his address. Hmm. "Hello? You changed my address, please change it back." "Oh, alright, sorry."

All goes well again, as well as not getting a job can go. He gets put on a course called New Deal which involves a lot of unemployed being made to sit in some rooms which contain several computers, only one of which as the internet, and a few old papers. He leaves. He had more luck before this "active job seeking course".

He signs back on. "You need ID." Bugger, The Safe Place vortex has swirled his passport and birth certificate away so well hidden he can't locate it. "Oh well, just answer this secret question. A while ago you changed your address- what to?" "Eh?! You changed it, not me! I got you to change it back so I don't know." "I see, in that case we can't help you." "Here are some letters you sent me, will these do?" "No, we don't accept our own documentation."

I'm glad I'm in a part time job, even if it is crappy...
