I tell you, it was so frustrating in my last job, trying to help people back to work, but we had no power to do anything over the lazy people, and there wasn't the financial support out there for the people who wanted to work. It might sound odd giving people financial support to return to work, but if you think a single person would get about £220 a month in JSA, but then a further £550 in housing and council tax benefit - helping someone get back on their feet with a further £100 odd a month isn't really all that much. If only the people in power would talk to the people on the floor!
