Bit of advice please,
My work contract is finishing a bit earlier than expected so I may need to sign on the dole. Thing is I’ve a 10 week holiday booked from mid September so while I’d happily take a short term contract between now and when I leave (as its all extra funds) if I was to be offered a full time placement I’d have to turn it down which I can’t see the dole office being particularly happy with. The original plan was to finish work a week before I left but that’s not an option any more and as the holiday is all booked and paid for, plus it being pretty much a trip of a life time through Japan, NZ & Oz, there is no way on earth I’m cancelling it.
I’ve already started looking / applying for short term stuff now and will be signing on as soon as this contract ends assuming I’ve not found anything. However if I don’t find anything before I go away, how will signing off the dole in mid September affect signing back on in late November?
Also if anyone needs any 2D or 3D CAD work doing, big or small, please let me know.
cheers people
