re: new rules for jobseeker must take jobs within 90 minute radius

Question on 90 Mins some muppet in the JC reckoned that a 90 min travel for a job on minimum wage was acceptable.

90 miles is what I travel to go on holiday

You cannot physically spend your entire waking hours looking for work.

I was signed up to 14+ job agencies, and added others as I found them, I was sent job specs that matched my profile.

I checked the emails daily, and the job sites every other day, rarely did anything during this time every week.

What they need to do is make it so that you get a response to any job that you apply to a company, I sent out in one day 28 of which 20 didn't bother to say SFA, 7 said sorry no vacancies, on one called me in to do a temp job (no Interview), and I'm in my 6th month. I'm due to find out if I'm being extended again.
