500 queue for just 20 sales assistant jobs

I presume that many of the people in the queue didn't realise that Poundland only guarantee a sixteen hour working week.
When the Government state that there are 10,000 jobs available every day at the Job Centre they fail to mention how many of those jobs consist of just a few hours a week, seems to me that even if a person had three of these jobs at the same time it still wouldn't add up to a living wage.
