Sorry I had to leave my P.C after I wrote that.
I wanted to give you both *Best answer*.
The layabout can not be shamed and will remain a layabout as he can fail the interviews that he is sent for.
The worker has just landed a job which is now only a 10 mile round trip so the £3 is now £80, and has been told there's great opportunities to work up the ladder, which He will do.
So a year at £3 was worth it.
Thank you for your replies.
