He's my toy-boy. I have had my pension for ages but he has not been up to working full-time. |

I'm still up to working full time, but have realised the County Council - who have most jobs - now use an algorithm, and I presume a very young recruitement team, who don't understand what an 'O' level is! :-| :-| :-| |

I know.....that annoys me too Maggie! Any courses with WEA or other council run courses ignore even including any '0'level qualifications on their forms so you can't truthfully tick any of the other qualification boxes. :-S |

I failed my 'O' level maths, so took a GCSE, in my 30's, but I do have an 'O' level in English. |

I asked for an estimate of mine a few months before my 60th birthday and I was surprised at how low it was when it arrived. When I checked everything I spotted a wrong NI number so rang. It was discovered that I had been given the estimate of someone with the same name as me who lived at one of the villages east of us and who had not worked anywhere near the number of years as I had. |
