Equally, I'm not sure why the taxpayer should be paying out dole money ad infinitum to able bodied people who are either unemployable or have no desire to work.

So in the meantime how is she to live?The museum wasn't paying anyone and wasn't hiring anyone.The JSA is used to to cover costs and to help her to seek work until she can get a full time job that she can use the degree for which she is already in student debt.

Some of you just don't realise how lucky you are to have a job..and don't have to jump through hoops to get a job.
