I recently sent you a question through the "Yoosk" website, and was pleased to find that you had replied to my question, which I am totally grateful for, though I would like to ask you another 2 questions:
1) As you'll already be aware unemployment is going through the roof, and this Government are rightly trying to reduce this as soon as possible.
I myself, for the past 5 years have been on many different temporary assignments with different companies, gaining much needed experience in a vast amount of work settings, though now I'm ready to settle down, and obtain a secure Permanent one, many employers are saying "This bloke is moving from one job to another we can't take him on", in this instance my reply is it suited me at the time, though this doesn't help, what would sya to those employers that act in that way?
2) The minimum wage is UP, great I'm over 22 years old, so I get £5.73, many unions are saying especially in this climate with inflation going up, this increase won't even scratch the surface, are the unions right or wrong?
I realise the question are long, though for you to get a feel of what I am trying to say, this in my mind is the only way.
Thanks
