How on earth in a technologically advanced and civilised society does such an inefficient and morally corrupt firm exist unchallenged by government?
I could not have put it better myself Saturn.
Generally speaking I am against privatisation but in this case it would be the best thing ever as they have lost there way completely its so very inefficient the example of Shelly is a classic not only has Shelly sent in all the evidence but like all on here has a debilitating neurological condition which wont get better so its obvious she cant work.
You would think it would be as simple as that but not the DWP talk about dead slow and stop I appreciate there trying to reduce the budget but what is the point of keeping genuine cases waiting for what seems like forever ridiculous system..................Paul
Hi Gus,
I was just reading back and came across your question about an opp. I must have somehow missed it initially.
Due to this jumble sale which sits atop my shoulders and laughingly calls itself a brain, I am not sure. The only opp I know of is Dollys hubby Mr D. I think it is in a different post though.
Having said that I could do with an opp, if only they could find a monkey willing to donate me a brain.
What Dolly and Mr D have just gone through is incredible. We all wish him a speedy recovery.
Morph...........Sorry about that Gus, I will try to do better in the future........grey matter allowing.
I could have put it a lot worse Storm.......but they would have banned me from the site.
Never in my wildest dreams did I ever expect to get caught up in such a cluster**** (a Clint Eastwood phrase from Heartbreak Ridge)........ definition.......a chaotic and messy situation from multiple mistakes or problems happening in rapid succession.......not sure about the word rapid in the definition......If ATOS moved any slower they would be going backwards.
We are all on Heartbreak Ridge by the sound of it.

Imagine the shame if you were at a party and someone asked you who you worked for and you had to reply ATOS. You'd never get another invite as long as you lived. A sewer worker, a dustbin man/lady, a homeless down and out, an alcoholic, a leper in Biblical times, my ex wife(and that's really stretching the point) all have more class than an ATOS employee.
operation your picture you had as your profile !
Ah! that Gus was my tribute to the very clever surgeons who saved Mr D's life. I put it up with a reply and good wishes to Dolly.
The squirrel one is because the walnut tree at the back of our house is now being used by squirrels to stock their winter larder.
Unfortunately the red ones are nearly all gone and most are now grey ones. As my mate refers to them.....rats with furry tails. Next doors cat has a great time chasing them.
Not all my avatars have significance, some are just wishful thinking, or inspiration for imagination.
It passes time on wet days. Nice to know people look at them and wonder. Keeps the old grey matter ticking over.

flying rats thats what they call them down here ! i believe they started reducing the number of greys & trying to introduce reds back in certain places
.
I have my heart break ridge at exactly this time next week, I Should and i Hope i finally have some sort of answer too the last year of pain and uncertainty, 3 working days later i am at the mercy of A-tos.
Question is that morning
Will i get Gunny highway
or
that cluster f*#k Major powers
Hoorah!.
Hi Everyone,
I havent been on here for a while, My dear, Darling sister died on Friday, She had been on the heart lung transplant list for two years, Then late on thursday night they found a donor that was a good match, They oerated on her through the night, But she died on the operatig table early on Friday morning.
To say I am heartbroken is an understatement. I thought I would let you guys know that just because I have got my PIP I havent forgotten all about you guys.
I will not be posting anymore until after the funeral. Take care all.
Candyxxxxx
take care candy sorry to hear of you loss
My condolences Candy
Take care Sheffy xx
So Sorry to hear about your sister Candy xxx
I had a friend who lived three doors up from me. She was in poor health and had undergone several operations.
On the last one it was a case of do or die. She told me this before she went in......'this isn't life, if I die on the operating table I wont know a thing about it'.
She survived, but only for a short while.
As much as her friendship meant to me I couldn't help thinking she is at peace now.
I don't believe we die if our friends remember us. I do believe release from pain is and suffering is a good thing.
This will not help you Candy.......only time can do that, but your memories will keep your sister alive.

Hi All
Just had to let everyone know that I have today received the confirmation that I have passed the PIP and without having to attend an assessment, I have been awarded full enhanced rate for both, which I am so relieved to have received and also shocked.
I applied in April 2014 and the 26wk 'waiting time' was due to expire in 2 wks time.
I wish everyone the best of luck in applying for their's
Sheffy xx
Well done Sheffy xx

It must be the week as my husband has just go his through from May. His award is the same as yours Shefinn and until 2017 and yes we were shocked too. Thought it might have gone the other way after hearing all the trouble that other people have had. Good Luck to everyone else waiting.
