Compelling unemployed to do community service


I dont want to do community service professor
Im taking the steps to do what I want to do in the future
I dont want to be automatically placed on community service
by default because Im unemployed .

ok if someone isnt making an effort put them on community service
but if people are doing courses and have a direction
it shouldnt be forced conversing

....maybe cause up to now, weve only heard of community service, thru the courts, as a form of punishment?..knee-jerk reactions are bad in the long term....we cant tar a whole group of people with the one brush..(excuse the pun)

Judging by that comment, I'm assuming your disappointment lies in the lack of people saying re-unification. Why didn't you just start a stand alone poll on whether people want a UI or not, instead of giving them about 12 choices, most of which were practical, rather than theoretical?

Your assumption is wrong. I was dissappointed that more people had not an opinion on what was important for Ireland. I had twelve choices so as to give a voice to a broad spectrum of opinion. If you want to start a poll on UI, by all means do so and I will partake. I hope by my suggestion I am being practical not theoretical for you now.

Here's a practical suggestion, stop being such a knob. It's not my fault you didn't explain yourself well enough.

I think there should be a forum for slow learners and the intellectually challenged. This could minimise the inarticulate outbursts towards rational people like me.applause

gleneagle: Now Now be a good lad and don't be getting all hot and bothered. You are getting far too emotional when confronted with the truth. If you can't stand the heat stay out of the kitchen.


What truth? What are you on about? You're talking in riddles you fool. I gave you some helpful advice based on what I assumed you were trying to achieve and you get all sarcy with me. If you don't want people getting stroppy with you, then don't act the arsehole when they are trying to help.
