Dear God. Phoned into Cennalink to get my current med cert tagged and even when calling in at 8 on the dot I was on hold for over 40 minutes.
Then we had a line with an echo in it.
Then the line dropped out when the CSA was asking me some follow up questions.
At least the med cert was tagged, but my head feels like I'm up in a bell tower while those bloody big bells are being rung.They truly are the worst, arnt they? We're still chasing our childcare subsidy that we logged last month. They dont reckon they'll have an update till mid september. Meanwhile, we're having to pay totally out of pocket and having to people moan about how we need more women in the workforce. How about either pay them what you pay men so dad can stay at home, or actually have universal childcare to enable more mums to go back to work!
I know! And nine times out of ten, the people at the coalface are doing their best; it's whoever set up the system to be as discouraging as possible for people who are seeking help plus, as StudSpud is currently experiencing, useless 'job providers' with their snouts in the trough taking money to do bugger all.
I'm hoping that by the time this certificate runs out I'll be well enough to work enough hours that I won't have to jump through those hoops ever again. Fingers crossed...
