Sorry
Didnt mean that at all.
You are right that the procedures are very basic and can be abused by those who wish to.
What surprised me first time round is that after a few weeks signing on , they make you attend a group meeting where they pretty much tell you that they only see about 17% of available jobs and that they are not very good ones.
Good luck getting something soon, what I have learned is that as well as the skivers at the JC there are also many genuine people looking.
