This is a question Unemployed

I was Mordred writes, "I've been out of work for a while now... however, every cloud must have a silver lining. Tell us your stories of the upside to unemployment."

You can tell us about the unexpected downsides too if you want.

Please do excuse me for saying so
but this post makes you sound like a cunt.

You managed to put yourself through university by stealing upwards of thirty grand over two years?

Just because a system can be taken advantage of, doesn't mean you should.

hmmm
it was no where near 30k i'm afraid. and while i do feel a tinge of regret and even emabarrassment, once i was in and getting the free money, it was hard to stop. Addicted to giro's i suppose.

I had never previously claimed fraudulently and have not done so since. They have tightened everything up and it would be a lot more difficult to get away with someone like that now. Not that i would try.

Temptation can be a very alluring thing and sometimes, just sometimes we break the rules to suit ourselves. In the full knowledge that, if we are caught, we are gonna get cunted in the fuck. But still, we do.

I'm not exactly proud, but it was a considered decision. I never bragged about it to anyone and in all honesty, this is the first time i have ever admitted to it. So yeah, it was shameful, but it doesn't keep me awake at night.

Fair do's.
Confession is good for the soul.
And honesty is ever admirable.

And hey
You're going to be paying much more of your hard-earned money in tax back, so why not rip the fuckers off?
