I cant believe the things get written sometimes
the local volunteer bureau has a very nice shop/office, well fitted out, several PC workstations and a window full of "vacancies".......
Aye, And unlike Every other High street Shop in any town In Britain these guys are on the up courtesy of their generous rates relief and the fact that they rely on Volunteers who do the job for nowt thus doing someone else out of a Job. the Only Non volunteers in the charity sector are the high heid yins who Run or Manages the shops and who often offset their chunky salaries against profits which would otherwise go to the charity.
No wonder Britains going to the Dogs, they encourage so many to voluntarily work for nothing and then wonder why the countries in recession and the number of Unemployed goes upwards..thus leaving the ever fewer number of Employers and their employees to pay more in taxation to cover the cost of the jobless who then further increase the need for charity shops or transport.
In Short Charity breeds the need for further charity because it's creating a generation of people who rely upon it more and more...a fools folly indeed.
