They 'have' to do it. That's the difference. Like I said, blame the government for putting them there, because that's literally what they are doing. "You need to work for the dole. Here take this squeegy and this bucket and go wash windscreens." In terms of the money they make, I'm not sure. I can't see them pocketing much to be honest. well their just putting themselves in danger by taking up such a job and the government should care a bit more and realise that their window washer dole poeple are not such a positive step towards the future coz their creating more negetivity!!!coz frankly no one wants them there ....this is terrible !!!! What? No no, they aren't 'taking' up the job, they're being 'forced' to do it lol. Government? Care? Those words don't go together lol. The local government here is like any other government. They'll do some things right, and others wrong. That's just how it is.
