Many many years ago I went with Mr. G. when he signed on. We were made to feel like scum throughout the whole procedure, and I swore then, that I would never do it.
Two and a half years ago, I was made redundant, and I refused to go and sign on. I suppose I should have, £60 a week would have been useful. However, I decided to find work for myself, and struggle along on one wage instead. Couldn't see me getting much sympathy at the DSS office, turning up in my big diesel Chelsea Tractor.
I know someone, whose friend used to turn up to collect her dole cheque draped in gold, wearing a fur coat and driving a Rolls Royce!
