I was in a job for almost 4 years, and it was a job I enjoyed and could do. A Disability Employment Advisor was sent in to watch me do the job. All she did was pick up the tool I use for a second and watch me doing nothing. She said the job was unsafe for me to do and I was forced to resign. This was 2 years ago and I've been unemployed since.

Hi guys

As luck would have it, i am using this service now to find a new job, I feel that my advisor is good (he is an old colleague of mine) he is genuinely interested in helping me, but the system is still the same. Its all about submitting people for jobs and searching for jobs. Sometimes we just looked at jobs that I am not remotely interested in considering.
