They might want to tell you that they are unemployed, they might want to tell you that they are a single parent living off benefits...because that type of person will tell anyone who will listen,but I reckon those who have been in work and been badly treated or discriminated against may not want to publicise this fact to the whole world.

Yes I see these people who don't work too, they cannot help you, as they have no experience of employment, or so little that it matters not one jot, so why mention them?
