I am so fucking confused about everything lately!
Earlier, I was asked by Mom's boyfriend if I'd seen the job advertisement for bar staff in the Cornish Times (a newspaper). After reading the advertisement, I called the bar only to receive no answer from anyone. 30 minutes later, I try again; still no answer. Another 30 minutes; no answer. I gave up trying for a while, then at about 15:45, I got an answer. However, it wasn't from the person it said to contact in the paper. That person doesn't get there until 18:00. So, I left my name and number.
Not too long after that, Mom's boyfriend gets home and says he's going to the Job Center some time next week (I forget what he said exactly), and asked when I was going to sign on (for unemployment). As I've mentioned before in my blog, it's not something I want to claim after the crash on the DMT "bus" that left me with epilepsy. I do not intend on claiming it due to the fact that since I haven't had a job for more than six months, I may end up being sent back to DMT immediately, and that scares me. I told him I was waiting for a call back from that job, and he proceeded to tell me that he called the bar earlier and was told that they were looking for someone with experience in bar work, as well as a licence for it.
Question is, how did he call them earlier when I was unable to get an answer? Also, why did he decide to tell me this after I told him I wasn't planning on claiming unemployment? It's leaving me so confused. If he knew that from the start, then why fucking bother telling me I should call them? Honestly, I think he just wants me to claim unemployment so he and Mom can have the money I get from it. I'm getting mixed messages from it all. They want me to get a job and get out of here, yet when they tell me about a job, and I try for it, I get told some crap as to why I can't get it and told to claim unemployment. I'd only ever claim unemployment if I knew that it wouldn't result in me being sent back to DMT, and there's nothing that says I won't be.
I could do what one friend had said, which is to claim it and refuse to go to DMT if they decide to send me, but I think that will just get the unemployment cut off, or I'll be in trouble with the police or something. So, in the end, it's worthless even trying. I'll either lose the money, or be in serious shit.
