Far and Away

Thanks @Zoe7 Yes you are right - I remember Centrelink making me wait over 8 weeks (with no $ Income at all), before they would pay me any Jobseeker $.

That was because I had not been Dismissed from Job - I had been forced to Resign, due to severe workplace harrassment (over a long time period).

In this case it is the actual Disability Employment Provider (Linked with Centrelink) who put me into that Traffic Job (in the 1st place) - Who are telling me that I must/ should Resign from the Traffic Control Job.

Their behaviour & repeated insistence amounts to virtual harrassment - It's upping my stress levels enormously.

In this case, am working in the Council Parks Job (3 days per week) for the next 6 to 8 weeks (until February) - So I would not be fully unemployed until the Council Temp Job stops in February.

I am still on Jobseeker (Registered with Centrelink) - Though currently receiving $0 Jobseeker, due to work income.

So I would not need to Re-Apply for Jobseeker - Also, when Council Parks job ends, that's "We have no work for you" (No Resignation.

So maybe okay....

The Traffic Control Job was my Backstop emergency backup to return to (even though it's not suitable).

So I feel sabotaged & abandoned by DES Provider - Telling me to resign that job

Hey @Adge In respect to what you are being asked to do in resigning - ask them to put that in writing ...see what they do then!!!! They cannot ask you to resign - well they can but you do not have to. If they won't provide you with the appropriate support - get everything in writing and then send copies of everything to your local MP. This makes me very, very angry for you buddy. They pushed (threatened) you into doing an extensive training course and taking a job you are not only not suited to but physically cannot do - you told the continuously this was the case and I cannot see at any stage they actually helped you 😥 If they will not put their 'directives' into writing then write extensive notes after each meeting with dates, times, names and what you have been told. You deserve so much better my little finch buddy 💚

Night night all @Faith-and-Hope @Zoe7 @Adge @Shaz51 and everyone here. Hoping for a good day for everyone tomorrow. 🤗💖

Thanks very much @Zoe7 Much appreciated.

You've given me some Sunshine, when it seems very dark at the moment (metaphorically speaking).

I keep telling myself that I do deserve much better (yes it's true).

Current situations, feeling abandoned & not supported by services that are being paid $$ to support me (yet are not) - does not reflect my Better Reality, Better Options, or deserving much better.

It must be a "Work in Progress"....

🙃Adge

You too @Former-Member A Good Day Tomorrow.

It is a ridiculous situation @Adge So many of these services are only concerned with the money they get for placing people in work - doesn't matter whether it is appropriate for you or you are actually capable physically of doing it. I find it very frustrating that this continues to happen and even more so that you are having to endure such disrespect and abuse from a service supposed to help you 😥 It really is just plain wrong!!! More hugs incoming ❤️

Hope you slept well @Former-Member 😁

Hey @Faith-and-Hope Just had a visit from my sister. All she wanted to do was whinge about her partner then she got a call from him that was not nice to listen to from her side. Apparently he was swearing and I told her to hang up - then he did. She then had a go at me for - in her words - "you didn't need to put your two cents worth in'. She left and I could barely even say goodbye to her - don't need that shite and don't deserve it. I won't be bothering to help either of them for a while nor visiting! Also just got a delivery for school and received the wrong item - it is a big item so can't simply post it back - no doubt it will get sorted eventually but with what went on with my sister it is probably annoying me more than it should. Can't even be bothered right now doing anything and just feel like sleeping so will snuggle with Tobes for a while and hopefully feel better later.

Hope your day is going better than mine 💖🌹

Oh @Zoe7, I am so sorry to hear that. You’re right on ….. sucky on all counts. You didn’t deserve that. I don’t blame you for wanting to just curl up and go to sleep ❣️

One of my baby dragons handed back in hospital yesterday - discharged in the middle of the night with inconclusive results …,, and another one has a health worry being a bit wobbly at the moment. Yesterday was pretty full on …..

Oh Hon - so sorry to hear about your baby dragons. My 'issues' are minor in comparison - puts it into perspective a bit so thankyou for letting me know about your baby dragons and your day. Send my love to both of them and give them an extra big hug from me and the fur babies @Faith-and-Hope Give one to yourself too as I can imagine you are concerned for both of them 😔

I have managed to drag myself up and clean the kitchen. I have been re-potting the plants my ex-colleague teacher kindly left. I bought some new pots as she took hers so now they are all ready to go back to school. I also cleaned Cat's bowls that have been sitting on the bench since she died (washed but couldn't bring myself to move them). I put them in the container I used to have her biscuits in and put a plant next to it that I bought when she died - I already had a pot with her things in it next to the container so I used that and put the rest of her things in the container also - so another little memorial to her done. I still feed Clover in the bedroom though - cannot bring myself to move her bowls to where I used to have Cat's 😥

❤️🦋 @Zoe7 …..

Good afternoon @Faith-and-Hope @Zoe7 @Adge @Former-Member @BlueBay @Shaz51

I hope all your days are going well

Lots of love 💕💕💕
