Having a job interview that clashes with my signing-on appointment.
Ringing up beforehand to explain that this would happen, and being told "Oh, it's OK, just go in at the next possible opportunity and explain why you missed it".
Doing so.
Receiving a letter telling me my JSA has been stopped because I missed an appointment.
Receiving another letter telling me my housing benefit has also been stopped because my JSA has been stopped.
I've not read The Trial but the term 'Kafka-esque' is in wide enough circulation for me to have a pretty good idea of what it means.
Fucking cunts. Are they actually that spiteful, or just incredibly stupid? Or some combination of both?
