We enjoyed a cheeky Wetherspoons breakfast this morning as a little January treat. Some of the deals and offers are great value. A breakfast muffin and an unlimited hot drink is just £2.99 so I had a nice breakfast, 2 cups of tea and got to sit by a roaring open fireplace for less than £3. That's a bargain in my book.
After breakfast we had to pop to the Job Centre Plus. We assumed we were called in for a review of our universal credits but that wasn't the case. Imagine our suprise when they offered us help to find a new job 🤣
It turned out to be a misunderstanding thanks to the pay department logging his wages later that usual due to Christmas. So on paper he looked like he hadn't been paid so they assumed he was unemployed.
Apparently this is a common problem for people paid on the last working day on the month. You'd have thought someone would have done something about it but that would involve being logical and having common sense.
So our income is going to be fluctuating each month by a fair margin, however now we know about it we can plan ahead and cope with it. Its a lot of faff though for something that seems easy enough to fix.
