best of both worlds... cash and freshers...

( i even get a staff- student union card!)

I'm tryingt o get a job while I'm at Uni for when I finish but it has meant I am stressing out about jobs and Uni work, and I'm through to 3 final stages for Northern Rock (waiting to hear) NPower havnt arranged a date and Ford have arranged a date for the day i have 2 exams :evil: plus i have to go to Rainham in Essex which is miles away and have to be there at 8.30am :evil:

what are u goin 2 do @ "the rock"? good luck by the way

Working in the back room of the Treasury, it's an accounting sort of role, long hours though but should be worth it if I do get it, was down to the last 7 so just waiting now

i signed on last year after i finished uni when i moved back to newcastle without a job... did me ok till i got sorted

Its hardly worth it! Do you still get £40 a week??

aye its something like that, it was ok for me to get by on for a month until i started me job + i had some savings. couldn't live on it tho!

just go down and dont mention uni, say u have been traveling and that your parents supported u before that, then u can claim from that day

Get a job, it's better than the rock & roll.

If you are looking for work, then fair enough if you sign on while looking.

If you are one of the lazy scrounging tw*ts that has no intention of looking for work and is quite happy to sit back while me, and every other hard working person supports you and your smack head friends, then f*ck off and get a job you c*nts!

:angry: :evil:

you cant "scrounge" anymore, only for 6 months then u r forced to attend tedoius courses and class's. at least 2 a week. Good luck to anyone who wants to put up with been taught how to suck eggs for £40 a week I say

My sister is at Uni' in Manchester, but she does some part time work to try and make a bit of cash to live on.

Nothing exciting and it's hardly rewarding........places like HMV/Virgin, etc, but at least she's doing a bit to make her own money.

She has a few friends that are either still at Uni and get supported from parents, or have left Uni and have no intention of getting off their arses.

I believe there are even "career" students!!!!

Yeah I remember getting about £80 every fortnight. I was torture- couldnt afford to do anything! Mind you, now I'm back to being a student and can't afford anything again. Can't wait to finally leave and get a proper job with real money!

Sort yourself out man :tut:

I was going to go and sign on after my exams finish next week, fuck waiting till July

Got a few job possibilities but nothing has come up just yet
