Fucking bunch of complete and utter useless twats
Yeah, this isn’t going to be happy fun time entry.
So, as you lot probably know, about 6 months ago I was sent to an agency instead of signing on. Admittedly, there wasn’t a hell of a lot they could do for me, but still.
At least I didn’t have to deal with the jobcentre.
Three weeks ago I was sent back to the jobcentre as I’d been at Pertemps for six months. The initial interview went well and I was told I would have to sign on every Monday morning. I went to the first signing, which was the week I was supposed to get paid. The next day, i got my last weeks money from Pertemps, with the rest supposedly going into my account on the Thursday.
Come Thursday morning, no fucking money.
So, off to the jobcentre with me, where I was told that they would have to put through a same day payment for me as they had no record on the system that I had actually signed that week. It’s this note that triggers the automatic payment.
By the end of the day I finally, finally had my money. It really should not be this hard, but I can understand, these things happen.
But that would be the end of the problem, right?
Well, until today.
Y’see, that was exactly two weeks ago. So, hauled myself out of bed early today and went to the bank. The plan was to get some shopping, top up my phone, give my landlord money I owe him and see about my new tat.
Except, when I checked my account, the was no fucking money. Again.
So, back to the jobcentre go I. Back on the phone. and they know why I didn’t get my money today. See if you can guess.
Go on.
Here’s an amusing pic while you wait:
Ready?
OK, hands up if you said that there was nothing on the system to indicate that I had signed on Monday?
Cangratumalations! Milk and cookie (or soft drink and biscuit of your choice) for getting it absolutely spot on!
Yup, the exact same fucking thing that happened a fortnight ago has happened again.
So, this time they’re going to phone me about what they’re going to do. Course, they were supposed to have called by now, so it’s back to the jobcentre for me.
And from now on I’m not leaving when I sign on until I have seen with my own eyes that the note has been put on the system. Cos, I’m sorry. But once is a mistake. More than that in a row suggests either incompetence or stupidity.

*EDIT* They’ve just phoned and it’s going to be another same day payment. So, I am getting my money, but that’s not the fucking point, is it? The point is that I shouldn’t have to do it at fucking all!

uhh, i just tried to leave you a really long note and OD ate it up because it contained the word: d0cument…? without the zero? anyway what i wanted to say was, i’ve learned through multiple situations like this, through jobcentres and social security payments, that they just don’t ever know what they’re doing and it pays to double, triple check, get people’s names and extensions so you can call to check again to make sure it’s all okay. they’re incompetent idiots. it’s enough to make a guy homocidal! Hope next time it goes smoother.

Anything involving getting paid and people messing it up is annoying. Why do you say of the agency “there wasn’t a hell of a lot” they could do for you? I have signed up with a bazillion agencies and none of them can find me any kind of work, even though I have tons of experience, a BA and an MA. Can I switch places?!

BEST MOVIE REVIEW EVER! But on to what you were saying, they should also pay you for the time you wasted having to go up there and talk to them about it again. Bonus! 😀

I’d laugh… but I’ve had people ‘misplace’ paychecks, send them by mail when I’m signed up for direct deposit (so they’re days late), and we’ve learned to use the computer system to file unemployment because it messes up less than talking to a real person does. *sigh* ~Shady PS: I love netflix reviews… I’m having more fun playing on their site than actually watching films. *hehehe*
