Or perhaps they don't live I the country, I'd suggest that's s reason not to take a temporary job rather than a lack of aptitude or work ethic, it's to simplistic to blame lazy young people and rhetoric I'm not keen on at all

And the real challenge is when you shouldn't be on them at all

I quite clearly said there are valid reasons for not doing so, not living in the countryside isn’t one of them as from what I can gather the majority of workers are biased in from nearby towns or cities.
Nobody should turn down employment based solely on the fact they don’t want to do it. I’d hazard a guess that most of us have done crap jobs in our lives that we had rather not done but we did them because it was required.
There’s a significant amount of people who think they’re owed a living in this country and they’re going to need to step and do their part in areas such as unskilled manual labour and other areas such as the nhs because as you can see from my example in the post above we’re already short in certain areas and it’s likely to get worse
