Stationmaster: Nearest normal Tesco is about 90 minutes commute away. Also, 20 pages of vacancies doesn't mean they're near me or are viable jobs for me. Looking closer, all near me are at small Tescos and are part-time. I need full-time income in order to get completely off benefits so I can rent a place to live.

Russ: I've thought about HGV, however, it costs a fair packet to get trained and go through the test and I have no money whatsoever. Also, it's not a job I'd stay in, and most employers will needle me on the likelihood that I'd go back to computer coding. I can lie, but my work history is what it is and tells the story.

Mike: I'd do the trolley work no problem, but I don't know that I have the right personality to do till work. I'm very much a practical technical person and not very good at 'people'.
