Just seen a neighbour(female) come home with shopping.
She is always off work sick with depression.
She works(sometimes) in benefit fraud section of DSS.
You could not make it up could you. Lazy b@stard.

If she is genuinely taking the pi$$ then I do see the irony!!
I once dated a guy who had a heart condition. After being moved offices he did a spate of communiting to London and it really took it out of him. So he saw his doctor who signed him off sick. After a while it was suggested he could go back to work 3 mornings a week.
At first I really felt for him until I started seeing just how much he was abusing it. He was absolutely fine at home, but kept milking it with his doctor so that for around 6 months he was only working 3 mornings!! During that time he even recommended to one of my closest friends that she do the same and get signed off longterm with 'depression' and then have a jolly for 6 months!! I was stunned.
Obviously i'm not with him anymore but since breaking up i've found out that he still carried on being signed off work and then decided to jack in his job so that he could do a full-time furniture making course. LOL!!
It begs belief.

Well I was signed off work..... For months! I could have worked from home and asked my company a few times but they couldn't set it up, they tried to find work for me to do but it was difficult as most of the work was office based. I didn't have a broken wrist, or leg and I wasn't depressed! I used to have anxiety attacks brought on by my epilepsy! I couldn't stop them! And the people who know me and who helped me through it knew how bad it was. I hardly left the house because everytime I did, I would have an attack! Now are you saying I should have dragged myself into work? I refused to get benefits either. I was just poor.
What people don't realise is, sometimes a mental problem is more disableing than a physical problem.

I'll do this slowly for the hard of thinking.........
B00 will have told her employers ' I have broken my wrist. I am in a plaster cast and have been signed off for eight weeks.'
Her employers, after asking how she is, will either have said, 'Let us have your sick note and we'll see you in eight weeks' or, 'Let us have your sick note and we'll get onto our Insurers and see if we can safely offer you other employment which you can complete one-handed whilst not in any way compromising the terms of our insurance; if this proves to be the case we will contact you with the details of the alternative employment which we can offer you until such time as you are able to resume your normal duties.'
Hmmmmm, which one do you think happened , Doc ?
