Sarah here with an update if anyone is interested. I'm now 34 happily married with a 4 year old little boy who sadly is diagnosed with lennox gastaut syndrome. I still work at ATS but in a different position, I wash my hair more often and am still werid but a lot more confident now 😌.
I actually went to one of Hayley's workshops in Birmingham basically I was living on benefits in a flat that was given to me after I'd left foster care, I had no idea how to apply for jobs properly I didn't even know how to write up a CV. I took down notes from her workshop and was able to secure my first paid job in retail the job didn't last but it got my foot in door and now I've worked in care and security fulltime since 2015.
Hayley is incredible, she doesn’t just tell people to get a job she takes the time to understand them and what barriers they have. She really works on the confidence and supports them in what to expect.
She's a saint that woman, her patience is admirable. I would have smacked the back of that guy's head and said "nobody told you to show up on time?" when he started blaming his issues on nobody teaching him how to manage in life. To me all these people except the red-head blamed their unemployment on somebody else. I suspect she's on the spectrum and needs more specialised help.
She really isn’t. She’s a terrible mentor. She has no idea how to build confidence in people. She has a dismissive avoidant / persecutor stance which, for vulnerable people, is the worst option of all. There are much much better ways than what she demonstrates. It makes good tele but it’s not what any actual professional in self development would choose.
I do wish this was compulsory before you leave school because no one really prepares you for real world interviews except a brief touch. Should be mandatory. What a fabulous job she does!
They DO offer career adviser,, help with work experience etc... It's not compulsory, but Nothings stopping people from going and just choose to sigh on to job seekers when they leave.
Why do people like you ALWAYS expect the state to do EVERYTHING for you? If you have kids, it's YOUR responsibility to teach them these life skills, not the state.
I don’t …. My daughter whom grow up just with her mam , I still had my time with her , Both me and her mam support her and she’s doing great , She’s 19 had a few jobs but she’s definitely finding her way in life Even paying for her own courses to better her self , Life is about taking the bull by the horns
@@nifralo2752 I was 16 when I got my first full time job as a software developer. Its called having good parents that teach you things, why do you need daddy government to do everything for you?
I clicked on one of these episodes thinking it would be a good laugh, I’m four episodes in now and it’s such a feel good heart warming show. This lady is an absolute angel.
I was bullied at school and my home life wasn’t great. Once I left school I used drugs and ended up on the benefits for the next 10 years. I had zero confidence and just dreamed about being a pop star. I couldn’t face the reality of doing menial labour for 40 hours a week so I just survived instead of living. In the end I got really sick of that life and I gave up drugs and started my own business cleaning. Best thing I ever did. May not have ended up being a pop star but I’m in my 50s now and never looked back. I don’t have a lot of money but I’m independent and look after my own needs and I feel proud.
What a kind woman. She is very sensitive, very warm with the young people and yet she know how to be authoritative to make them react, build a project in their life. A very helpful, human person.
When there’s a camera to your face and it will be viewed to millions of people nationwide, people change their personality to what they think people will like. Not saying she’s a horrible person off camera but we have to be wary of this.
Tammy Tammy Tammy. Unbelievable. Sorry to tell you love, but you do what you have to do to get money. When I was at University, I had to work my arse off working in McDonalds to get through my degree. I'm now a Registered Nurse.
Nursing is an awesome job!!!! I nannied throughout my studies (and loved it) but did envy the training you get from huge businesses like Kmart, Maccas, Target, etc.
Same here, I did every job under the sun when I was in uni, old people’s home , baby sitting, etc. my first job at 16 was at McDonald’s. I can’t even feel sorry for Tammy with that snobbish attitude. Being on welfare for no reason is even beneath McDonald’s
The audacity of Tammy! There are people with full degrees and tons of experience who struggle to find jobs and she thinks she can be so snobby with what she has to offer? I feel for Bill on the other hand, he seems so lovely and clearly has a lot on his plate. Same with Thomas, he definitely just needs some guidance.
To tell you the truth, I know a kid who has failed his maths and English GCSES and he is doing some sort of care qualification. Frankly, the care agency has tons of jobs going in caring for elderly. As you say loads of people with degrees struggle to get a job and would be pleased to work in food, better than working cleaning sewers.
@@banana9106 cleaning sewers is certainly way better paid. anyway, it's not about working with food; it's about working for certain companies that treat their Employees like sh*t. frankly, despite the criticism here, I understand this Girl. I can very confidently tell You that I would never work for subway [again-yes, I did in the past, waste of Time and lack of self-respect]. it's a sh*t company, they exploit People, also some subways cheat their Customers, and what some do, if You knew, You wouldn't eat there. regards.
@@wolfrahmphosphoros5808 I wouldn't recommend cleaning sewers. Water companies are not that great to work for and the pay is good because it is danger money. Have to wear a respirator and still risks from sewer gases and also leptospirosis, still someone has to do it.
@@wolfrahmphosphoros5808 They don't like fixing their problems, so to escape fines from the regulatory authorities, let's just say there are ones that put pressure on their labs to produce the right results.
@@banana9106 I have worked in social care for 10 years now, I love my job dearly but it really is not for everyone, in my last position in the private sector we had our local job centre who just threw young people at us, these young folk were assisting with personal care, dealing with clients who were chalenging and never lasted more than a few days. Life experience plays a massive part in this job and young folk have not accrued that, it takes a certain nature to do this job its certainlynot for everyone.
There's nothing wrong with working in mcdonalds. its a job like any other from what ive heard surprisingly well paid. a lot of people i've spoken to love working there. i work in care and ive actually seen jobs there advertising for more than i make an hour
This is what should be part of the school curriculum. Especially, for those children who are in situations like these young people. The local business communities need to work with schools, to mentor children to achieve their potential. Well done all involved, and if I was a business owner if I could, I would give them all a chance.
In the last year of high-school we're given work expericance, shown how to write CVs, how to fill out an application etc... So it IS taught to us. Some teens just choose not to listen and take the opportunity and advice when it's given.
@@nicolewooldridge9683 They already help get teens work experience in their last Yr of high-school as well as shown how to write cvs an fill put applications. It's not a class but offered. Alot of people just choose not to go because its not mandatory
Some of these people are products of there own environment, it takes more than being shown how to do a cv and a bit of work experience, subjects like e.g French, music...could be replaced with things that are going to be needed in everyday life as an adult to get you places with a better chance of doing something with your life.
@@illumindonnaughty They DO help with all that in the last year of high school an they do it on top of the school curriculum. People just choose not to go or listen. If their given the opportunities and choose NOT to take that opportunity, then that's on THEM not the school
That poor young lad broke my heart talking about his dad and about his sexuality he is so insecure he has his whole life ahead of him he is handsome and has a big heart I wish him all the best in his future x
Hahaha. I'm a support worker. I clean toilets, scrub showers, make meals, hand feed clients, change wound dressings, shower and dress them, vacuum, mop, do their shopping, wash their clothes, make their bed. Occasionally I get to take them out to lunch or bingo etc, but the bulk is doing their day to day care they can no longer manage. If she has studied and became qualified for this, she would know this is what it entails. I think she means she wants to be a social worker. They purely refer people to the agencies, paperwork etc. Wait until she is old and needs looking after.
How I agree with you! I've been in social care for 25 years, and it's damned hard work for low wages. You forgot to mention the incontinence and when clients hit us, lol!
Couldn't be more happy for Thomas. Did you see how made up and happy he was when the others got jobs? Despite the fact he'd been turned down at that point. What a genuine guy, you could see it in his face. I think sometimes a lot of pressure and adversity early in life makes people bitter and hateful, but other times it forges a diamond. I have a strong suspicion he's the latter.
Agree Thomas is a lovely guy. I hope he's happy in life now. This show shows how f*cking stupid judging people on benefits is. I think it was quite cruel to give the same group the same job interviews tbh, he must have felt awful.
No, they need a job. These are able bodied people with no jobs. They don't need silly hugs. They need to stop being leeches like so many of these underclass unwashed chavs.
Anyone else watching this in lockdown? After Hayley told the redhead girl to work on her appearance, I paused the video and got changed. This was my look: Torn dungarees, giant ugly purple jumper, unwashed hair, smudged glasses, dark under eye circles and dry skin, no make up. I feel better now I sorted myself out :)
What this demonstrates is that what people need is to be listened to and helped to identify what they have to offer. That isn't always obvious or automatic. Stop demonising people on benefits, stop demanding they just 'get a job' and *help* them. It is so much better for everyone involved.
A carer who doesn't actually care. Just wow. I think the truth is that she is actually sad and seeing herself in those helpless people; and that is what upsets her. There was no need for the eye rolling and gimping though. 🙄
My 16 year old son works at McDonald’s while he waits to join the army college in March. Its a hard and demanding job and some of the abuse they get is disgusting. The way that Tammy was making faces and gipping in front of the people she was serving is disgusting. I am a social worker and believe me we see a lot worse conditions, to be a social worker you need to actually care for people no matter what they look like or even how they smell there Should be no judgement. She needs a reality check, looking at her Facebook she’s now a s mum to 3 boys so this must have been filmed a while ago hopefully she’s changed her attitude I wish them all the luck
@@Mjk10957 thank you he’s defiantly getting impatient now he was supposed to go in September 2021 he passed his fitness test in fact he passed it that well it was good enough to get into the parras and he passed his medical until the doctor noticed he has a bit of over crowding with his front teeth and said he needed braces before he can join so we’re trying to get a dentist which is literally like pulling teeth no ones taking on and as it’s getting closer to March it’s stressing him out it’s all he’s ever wanted from being a young child and something as silly as a dental problem is standing in the way they cause him no pain and he was never planning on braces
@@jamesbeech9177 🤔 don't understand why over crowding would be a reason not to allow him to join? Also fixed braces need adjusting every 6-8 weeks and depending on complexity of treatment could take anywhere between 9-48 months
Working at McDonald's is nothing to be embarrased about. My job there allowed me to afford my college course many years ago. I'm always grateful they even gave me a chance. It also taught me a lot about working, time management, and many other aspects of the working world.
This is fantastic. I've watched 3 episodes and every one brought me tears. It is very difficult to get out of that situation. Such a life-changing opportunity.
I grew up in the same area as Tammy and her family . Her way of thinking is generational entitlement , one generation after the other having kids as way of easy money . I really do hope she breaks the cycle .
Hayley is a wonderful person I wish employers at the job centre had only 5% of her enthusiasm and empathy. The key to turning lives around is to catch young people early and make them understand that their past never defines their future. They must be encouraged and by simply re-discovering their dreams believing in themselves and a future again. Lack of confidence, negative self believe and fear of the unknown is often the biggest challenge to overcome. She helped all on their way with professionalism, tough love BUT most of all the kindness and care they needed to come out of their shell and to open up. Really love this series and I hope that a lot of young people take inspiration from this because no matter where where we come from, no matter how much pain we carry inside, we can all decide on a goal and then step by step move towards it, time is a great healer but we all need to focal point in life.
It's the individuals repsonsibilty to find a job like anywhere else in the world and not the jobcenters.thry can jus show that these jobs are open..they cannot drive anyone to an employer
Interesting how Tammy really limits herself with a closed mindset. She hasnt matured since school and seems to struggle to open her mind to developing any skills or experience. I love how Hayley tells her what she sees about her negativity directly.
I love how tammy says working in MacDonalds is degrading and she wouldn't stoop that low... reality check ur lower cos ur not choosing to work. U can't stoop any lower being unemployed, not cos she has no choice she just feels entitled to get the job she desires and until that day comes she won't bother with anything 'below her' 🙄
I wouldn't work in Mcdonald either they are one of the worst employers plus you stink of oil, there are jobs people just won't do, if it makes you retch the jobs not for you
That comment about working in McDonalds! Oh my goodness. I hope anyone that works for McDonalds who sees this programme doesn’t take it to heart. There is pride in doing any job well and McDonalds is a harder job than than many I should imagine.
Tammy has no idea what being a carer involves. There will be a lot of worse things to do than serving food to the homeless. I don't think she wants a job at all!
My best friend worked there to help cover Uni costs, it is most definitely not an easy job, hospitality sector in general, but McDonald’s is belittled.
Agreed, you should not look down on people that are doing something for you. Those working hard and getting paid low wages should be respected and valued. I think Tammy doesn't realise that she is not better or worse than anyone else, and it is just not nice to look down on someone to make yourself feel better. But I think she will get a better perspective and understanding by actually working and having more experience.
@@a.m.3567 I did the same and it's not as easy as people seem to think, especially if your studying because you working long hours which just about pays enough for uni, going to classes an extra work when you get home and that aswell as dealing with arleast 3 or "karens" screaming at you everyday. It wasn't the best of jobs or the highest paying, but got me through uni
Not wanting to embarrass Sarah in front of the others about her appearance and personal hygiene, Hayley decides to raise the issue on national television to an audience of millions.
Anyone could see she wasn't the best at personal grooming. With Hayley addressing the issue in a kind and straightforward manner, Sarah was able to make the necessary corrections. Evidently nobody has ever said these things to her, and she's suffering as a result. She obviously felt alot better and more confident after she cleaned up, and Hayley was very positive about it.
This is what people need. just a small personal intimate push. People are not to stupid to work. They just dont know how to structure their daily lives and how to perform in job intervievs. Amazing how close she gets with the individuals. We need more people like her. No one would be unemployed.
There was nothing like this in the 60's to prepare you for jobs; I didn't have a great deal of confidence at interviews, and found it difficult to relate to people. It would have been great to have somebody like Hayley.
There still isn't for regular people. I've never had any problems, but many of my friends and family have. They get absolutely no help from anyone. Someone calls them every few months and tells them they should find work already, like they don't already know that. This is a tv show, nothing like the reality.
The young caterer, what an absolute gem. Genuine as hell, just put in a situation every one of us would struggle with. NO I DIDNT CRY WHEN HE GOT THE JOB, was dust or..something
Gee what a wonderful lady Hayley is!! They all affect me, but Thomas was so handsome, & well-spoken, I sure hope things are still working out for him xxx
She has the qualifications to be a carer, my love, 24years in healthcare .... you don't need qualifications to get into it... turn up, no convictions ... they will hand u some gloves there and then
My mum has no qualifications or any experience in the carer industry, but 2 months ago she apied for a job in a care home and the hired her on the spot and she gets training on the job
I was born in 1955. Got my school diploma aged 16. Left my home in Spain. My parents gave me a one way ticket to The Netherlands. My biological father and his wife took me in. Within 3 months learned Dutch and found a job. I will retire in a couple of months after almost 50 years of fulltime working at least 40 hours per week, never depending on anyone else. In my large family including all those living in southern America, Spain and Germany (with one exception only), not working is a shame, something that is absolutely not done. Even in times of economic crisis like in the 80s and beginning of 2000, we never lost a job. Coincidence? I do not think so. It is a matter of wanting and willing. But I do absolutely understand some do need help......and there is Hayley for those with lesser chances.
Learned a new language and got a job within 3 months? Amazing..my mum and dad did the same as migrants - Hayley is lazy and entitled. I am so grateful my parents were hard working and not too proud to take any job that was available to them.
American, and graduated during the Great Recession. Spoke Mandarin and had a BA, but couldn't find ANY job for 9 months. Left after working 2 years to get a MA from John's Hopkins. Learned Shaanxi dialect (actually a language), worked as a professor in China. Met an Iranian, fell in love and had 2 kids. Learned Persian and Azeri Turkish. Now I'm a professor in Iran, and applying for my Italian citizenship through ancestry. Take those jobs. Be mobile. Keep updating your skills, and combine truly unique skills.
So pleased for Thomas. He seemed like a decent lad who's just took a wrong turn. Right from the start he sounded pretty well spoken . He wasn't talking in the this muttering gangsta way, and said he had a job. He just needed that bit of a rocket up the arse to get himself going again. As for Tammy, fucking hell. Thinks shes worth more than a McDonalds worker, yet shes miserable, unemployed and doesn't even have the personality to do job she's supposedly qualified for and no-one else looking at her will think she's worth more. Miserable unhealthy looking benefit seeker. Believe me, those working at McDonalds probably have a better quality of life and prospects than she does.. My friend worked in McDonalds in his late teens, now he's a computer programmer because he used his money from McDonalds to buy his computer equipment.
They turned me down after I graduated with a BA, because I don't speak Spanish (from San Antonio) and it was the Great Recession. Would've done it in a heartbeat, though.
This is great. I did a govt run employment course way back in 1990. Was similar to this. A lovely guy called Ken ran it. And it did help me to secure work. In Christchurch, NZ. Hayley seems lovely. Inspiring. Really encouraging. Awesome show. Thanks for posting.
Another amazing thing was how I got my first full-time job back in 1995 for a call center. I signed up at a temporary job agency who found the job for me and I was only going to stay over Christmas. However, I wanted a full-time job so much that I gave it 110%. I was very polite with the customers and with my coworkers. I gave it all I had, and I was very attentive in training. One day, immediately after Christmas, my boss called me into her office and said that we really like what we hear from you and what you were doing. How would you like to join us full-time? To say the least, I was ecstatic. I said, when do I start full-time? As soon as my temporary contract is up, they told me, you will start full-time. It was amazing. I went to the temp agency and they had already heard about it, and they were so proud of me!
What a wonderful mix of sensitivity, understanding and pushing forward to help people to value themselves and feel more confident to be able to work towards their futures. X
Hayley you are freaking awesome woman 👩 the way you bring people out of there shells and build them up to be the best they can and believe in themselves is extraordinary. You carry yourself with so much dignity and so humble your a stricter version of princess Diana hahaha i hope you keep changing peoples lives because it is beautiful to watch. Thank You love clara xxxxx
Bill is adorable. I’d say he’s on the spectrum.. I’m allowed to assume, I am myself 🙂 he seems like such a genuinely nice guy, just needs some confidence
I was so glad to see them get the job opportunities they wanted. Hayley has such a good heart. She's one of those gems that make a huge lasting difference in people's lives. I really feel for young people struggling to get a job, especially these days. Their confidence gets pounded flat from rejection after rejection despite putting in the effort. I think most people can relate to that at some point in life. I know I do because I experienced it when I finished school a long time ago. It's hard but people need to remember they're worth it. Your life can change for the better so quickly, so never give up.
I wish we had a careers lady like Hayley when we were at school. I'll never forget my careers talk\meeting.. she was bored, didn't help me with ideas. I hadn't a clue what I'd be when I left school. I hadn't even considered further education. I was only young. She told me I'll be a flower arranger . I'm sure it's a great job but I didn't feel inspired once I'd been told that's my career path set in stone. Everyone else got lawyer or veterinarian. I got that. FFS. So anyway.. if you need any flowers arranging... I'm your mermaid.
You're lucky. Because I didn't want to go to Uni or Teacher Training college, I was told my best avenues would be policewoman, nurse or secretary. Maybe if they'd looked at what I was actually good at they might have told me graphic designer, journalist or social worker ... Anyway, that was back in 1971, and one can only hope that times have changed since then! _PS_ I've done many and various interesting things in life - all my choice.
Job Networking Agencies take note: This is the approach you need to adopt if you want to be successful in getting your clients off welfare & back into the workforce. So far after watching this series it's great to see that Hayley's method & approach to job seeking is highly successful & ACTUALLY WORKS! I've participated in jobclubs over the years but not one has offered me the chance to do real work experience in a real work environment organised by the jobclub leader (who really didn't seem to give a s**t). All I did was sit in a classroom with a group of half a dozen other welfare recipients & waste my time doing extensive jobsearch & applying for jobs I knew I didn't stand a chance at getting & repeatedly practice interview techniques which I already knew. Out of all the positions I applied for I didn't gain employment, but if Hayley's caring attitude & technique were to be implemented here in Australia, I'm certain there would definitely be a noticeable difference in jobseeker's self esteem & self confidence. Older jobseekers as well as young, single parents - she doesn't discriminate or make fun of. Everyone who participates is treated equally & with utmost respect, no matter what current life circumstance they're in. No-one gets left behind. Home visits are a bonus too! Ordinary jobclubs don't offer this. They get paid to do a job & don't show any compassion about their client's circumstances, low self-esteem/low self-confidence whatsoever. Getting out of the jobseeking rutt can be tiresome & extremely daunting, but with Hayley's proven method she makes it much easier to get out of. I'm also impressed with Hayley's hands-on, caring approach & attention to those on welfare who display low self-esteem/low self-confidence. This can really impact on those seeking work, especially for those who've been on the welfare treadmill for years, sometimes decades. After years of knockbacks, for some it can be extremely daunting seeking work. Hayley has proven her technique has worked wonders with these people who are looked down upon in society. I also like the idea of her secretly listening in on the job interview. This way, feedback can be given on how well the interviewee answers questions during the interview (if it's recorded) & if the jobseeker is unsuccessful in gaining a position, playing back the recorded interview can help improve answering questions/interview techniques next time. Hayley, you're simply an awesome woman, dedicating your life to helping! I just wish there more people like you in the world!!!
My very first job was working in McDonald's when I left school it's a very demanding work environment and it gives you great communication and team work skills giving you great confidence which is key to progressing yourself, and now from having those skills and going into education Im now nursing in a hospital. it's incredibly insulting that tammy thinks it's deemed low to work there it's a sad negative attitude I do hope she has changed and got herself into work.
Nothing wrong with working in MC Donald's i heard MC Donald's pays for a lot of there staff to go and do educational courses to help them with getting a better paid job. I can't stand people who judge people on the work they do.
Really they do that? I better do some research about that to find out more. Not saying I’m gonna go work at McDonald’s I already have a job but just out of curiosity
The real burden on our economy are the billionaires. I'm all for people having jobs if they can but a lot of welfare cuts are just kicking people while they're down.
Tammy is a disgrace.She does not want to work in any job but she happily gets the money from the taxpayers.She wants to work in care but is not a caring person at all,starts having attitude and rolling eyes in disgust in the homeless centre.Without the handouts from the taxpayers she would be eating there too.
What disgusts me is the "degrading" of workers that get a career in a fast food establishment such as McDonalds. McDonalds can offer it's employees the eventual opportunities to achieve management status and from there that can move on to area manager, etc. It can also give skills such as stock ordering and managing the store making sure things are clean, etc. There is nothing to be ashamed from doing that job. Ignorant people like Tammy most likely expect to eat in a McDonalds and expect a good service despite their low appreciation for the staff.
A friend of mine's family got so uppity, their son thought he was too good for McDonald's. He ended up not getting any work and once in his mid 20s, he became unemployable no one would have him (including McDonald's) - he was too old and had no work experience. His mum got fwd up with him living at home, so pays his rent for years and ongoing.
I've seen chief nurses act as porters when needed and registered managers of nursing homes do laundry. No one in social care is above any job required to care for service users. Tammy appears to have no idea
@@alice80122I work in the nhs and no matter what job title you are no manager can just turn up in laundry and work machines without training so that’s lies sorry
If I had been in Hayley‘s place and seen Tammy‘s disgraceful behaviour because she’s too good for „the dirty homeless“ then I would have made sure her next work experience was in a care home for the old, washing and changing nappies, under time constraints no less! You want to work in care? That’s great, we need you, but we don’t need your ego!
I was jobless after leaving college for 1 year then at 19 worked as a part time customer assistant in food retail. I am now 3 years later a store manager for the same company.
30:30 She's too good and over-qualified to work at McDonald's yet she interviews like that? A typical McDonald's recruiter wouldn't giver her a mop job.
Having a 20 year old daughter who's at the university and stresses over the unbelievably difficult job matket in Greece where we live, this video really made cry. So inspiring and so positive.
Tammy seems to want a job as CEO with no experience. Haley is right, tammy is being a job snob. Not everyone loves their job, but we do it for an income. Tammy doesn't want help but she's on benefits
I have co-workers who obviously come to work for the money and not the love for the profession. One of my fellow co-workers openly has said to our director "Thank you for the extra shift tomorrow because I'm thinking of the money." With a smile on her face. I was gob smacked.
I have a well paid job in a profession. However, if I did become unemployed and could not get work I would absolutely not sit at home and let the state pay my bills. I would work in any job just to get out, interact with other people, and feel that I was supporting myself.
There's nothing wrong with working at fast food places. Especially for young people, the skills developed include time management, health and safety awareness, customer service, working under pressure in a fast-paced environment, and many more skills that are beneficial to you and your next employer
So, because she didn't want to embarrass Sarah in front of the others, she did it on national TV instead...where the others would have seen it anyway. Genius...
What is wrong working in McDonald Tammy?? Is a proper job that deserves respect, you earn it yourself and not rely on handouts. Nothing wrong working in Mcdonalds. I used to have 5 p/t jobs at once including cleaning jobs. I worked extremely hard for a period of my time and now I had paid off my mortgage early enough to be able to enjoy my life now on p/t job only. It was not easy but I want to prove to myself that it can be done. I thank my younger self looking after the older me! My motto is: work when you can and when you can't, thank your younger self for making such wise decision to provide for your future self!!
It's not just Tammy that looks down her nose at jobs, I told the job center I wanted a cleaning job, a number of the people who worked there pulled faces and said really?? Nowhere could open if they hadn't been cleaned for goodness sake. I love my job,
Working at McDonald's is not degrading. Look at how many people eat there. They need to have a good experience and giving them that is a good thing for an employee to do. Also McDs will take an interest in people and promote them. If you show you are up for it you can rise through their ranks. Everyone has to start somewhere. I think it is really bad manners to suggest McD staff are low. They are people working for a better life. So many people want a fast clean place to eat. The staff doing this are good workers.
I really hope that they have grown in confidence and kept their work whatever direction they chose to go in they are all each such lovely characters and genuine people I was so pleased to see how well you all done.
I don't think not wanting to do certain jobs is necessarily job snobbery, although when it came to Tammy and McDonalds it was. I think sometimes it's about knowing yourself well enough to know what you wouldn't cope with.
@@nifralo2752 I was going to say autistics couldn't do some jobs due to sensory issues. Actually, sales would be the worst job for an autistic. Some might be able to handle a customer service call centre job as long as there was no upselling, and making outbound calls was a very rare occurence.
Sarah here with an update if anyone is interested. I'm now 34 happily married with a 4 year old little boy who sadly is diagnosed with lennox gastaut syndrome. I still work at ATS but in a different position, I wash my hair more often and am still werid but a lot more confident now 😌.
Glad to hear you're doing well Sarah, sorry to hear about your little boy.
Well done Sarah proud of you 👍 xx
Well done you. loved you on the show!,
Getting married and having a child isn't an achievement.
@@jenjones90 sticking with the job she has tho is so stfu
I actually went to one of Hayley's workshops in Birmingham basically I was living on benefits in a flat that was given to me after I'd left foster care, I had no idea how to apply for jobs properly I didn't even know how to write up a CV. I took down notes from her workshop and was able to secure my first paid job in retail the job didn't last but it got my foot in door and now I've worked in care and security fulltime since 2015.
Hey, good job! (literally I suppose)
I‘m proud of you :)
Good Job Girl! : Did you get a Hug?
WELL DONE !!!!! You are an inspiration 👏
well done. I'm impressed. Good luck
Well done!!
Hayley is incredible, she doesn’t just tell people to get a job she takes the time to understand them and what barriers they have. She really works on the confidence and supports them in what to expect.
She's a saint that woman, her patience is admirable.
I would have smacked the back of that guy's head and said "nobody told you to show up on time?" when he started blaming his issues on nobody teaching him how to manage in life. To me all these people except the red-head blamed their unemployment on somebody else. I suspect she's on the spectrum and needs more specialised help.
Thats what job center employees should behave like.
Who cares
She really isn’t. She’s a terrible mentor. She has no idea how to build confidence in people. She has a dismissive avoidant / persecutor stance which, for vulnerable people, is the worst option of all.
There are much much better ways than what she demonstrates. It makes good tele but it’s not what any actual professional in self development would choose.
Hayley is a great lady , I've never seen this before , professionally I cannot judge.
I do wish this was compulsory before you leave school because no one really prepares you for real world interviews except a brief touch. Should be mandatory. What a fabulous job she does!
They DO offer career adviser,, help with work experience etc... It's not compulsory, but Nothings stopping people from going and just choose to sigh on to job seekers when they leave.
@@jonghun8468 school careers advisers are useless though. What dose any 17 year old know about the real world?
Why do people like you ALWAYS expect the state to do EVERYTHING for you?
If you have kids, it's YOUR responsibility to teach them these life skills, not the state.
I don’t …. My daughter whom grow up just with her mam , I still had my time with her ,
Both me and her mam support her and she’s doing great ,
She’s 19 had a few jobs but she’s definitely finding her way in life
Even paying for her own courses to better her self ,
Life is about taking the bull by the horns
@@nifralo2752 I was 16 when I got my first full time job as a software developer. Its called having good parents that teach you things, why do you need daddy government to do everything for you?
I clicked on one of these episodes thinking it would be a good laugh, I’m four episodes in now and it’s such a feel good heart warming show. This lady is an absolute angel.
SAME. It's so wholesome! I'm obsessed with this series.
I was bullied at school and my home life wasn’t great. Once I left school I used drugs and ended up on the benefits for the next 10 years. I had zero confidence and just dreamed about being a pop star. I couldn’t face the reality of doing menial labour for 40 hours a week so I just survived instead of living. In the end I got really sick of that life and I gave up drugs and started my own business cleaning. Best thing I ever did. May not have ended up being a pop star but I’m in my 50s now and never looked back. I don’t have a lot of money but I’m independent and look after my own needs and I feel proud.
What a kind woman. She is very sensitive, very warm with the young people and yet she know how to be authoritative to make them react, build a project in their life. A very helpful, human person.
💯 If only all job mentors could be like her. Wonder if she's still doing this job?
When there’s a camera to your face and it will be viewed to millions of people nationwide, people change their personality to what they think people will like. Not saying she’s a horrible person off camera but we have to be wary of this.
Tammy Tammy Tammy. Unbelievable. Sorry to tell you love, but you do what you have to do to get money. When I was at University, I had to work my arse off working in McDonalds to get through my degree. I'm now a Registered Nurse.
👍🏽
Nursing is an awesome job!!!! I nannied throughout my studies (and loved it) but did envy the training you get from huge businesses like Kmart, Maccas, Target, etc.
@@bigb853 Thank you very much :) it certainly is
@@bigb853 that's good I couldn't do it. Im real sensitive
Same here, I did every job under the sun when I was in uni, old people’s home , baby sitting, etc. my first job at 16 was at McDonald’s. I can’t even feel sorry for Tammy with that snobbish attitude. Being on welfare for no reason is even beneath McDonald’s
The audacity of Tammy! There are people with full degrees and tons of experience who struggle to find jobs and she thinks she can be so snobby with what she has to offer? I feel for Bill on the other hand, he seems so lovely and clearly has a lot on his plate. Same with Thomas, he definitely just needs some guidance.
To tell you the truth, I know a kid who has failed his maths and English GCSES and he is doing some sort of care qualification. Frankly, the care agency has tons of jobs going in caring for elderly. As you say loads of people with degrees struggle to get a job and would be pleased to work in food, better than working cleaning sewers.
@@banana9106 cleaning sewers is certainly way better paid. anyway, it's not about working with food; it's about working for certain companies that treat their Employees like sh*t. frankly, despite the criticism here, I understand this Girl. I can very confidently tell You that I would never work for subway [again-yes, I did in the past, waste of Time and lack of self-respect]. it's a sh*t company, they exploit People, also some subways cheat their Customers, and what some do, if You knew, You wouldn't eat there. regards.
@@wolfrahmphosphoros5808 I wouldn't recommend cleaning sewers. Water companies are not that great to work for and the pay is good because it is danger money. Have to wear a respirator and still risks from sewer gases and also leptospirosis, still someone has to do it.
@@wolfrahmphosphoros5808 They don't like fixing their problems, so to escape fines from the regulatory authorities, let's just say there are ones that put pressure on their labs to produce the right results.
@@banana9106 I have worked in social care for 10 years now, I love my job dearly but it really is not for everyone, in my last position in the private sector we had our local job centre who just threw young people at us, these young folk were assisting with personal care, dealing with clients who were chalenging and never lasted more than a few days. Life experience plays a massive part in this job and young folk have not accrued that, it takes a certain nature to do this job its certainlynot for everyone.
The people who work at Mc Donalds are paying this girls benefits each month out of their pay packets each month.
There's nothing wrong with working in mcdonalds. its a job like any other from what ive heard surprisingly well paid. a lot of people i've spoken to love working there. i work in care and ive actually seen jobs there advertising for more than i make an hour
@@philpants44 It wasn't always well paid, but now yeah it's decent money and you will move up pretty fast if you have an ounce of common sense
@@toffeelatte6042thas hilarious thas too funny soo true 🤣🤣
This is what should be part of the school curriculum. Especially, for those children who are in situations like these young people. The local business communities need to work with schools, to mentor children to achieve their potential. Well done all involved, and if I was a business owner if I could, I would give them all a chance.
School’s already pack, so much in, I am not sure, how much more , they can pack , into the curriculum 😊
In the last year of high-school we're given work expericance, shown how to write CVs, how to fill out an application etc... So it IS taught to us. Some teens just choose not to listen and take the opportunity and advice when it's given.
@@nicolewooldridge9683 They already help get teens work experience in their last Yr of high-school as well as shown how to write cvs an fill put applications. It's not a class but offered. Alot of people just choose not to go because its not mandatory
Some of these people are products of there own environment, it takes more than being shown how to do a cv and a bit of work experience, subjects like e.g French, music...could be replaced with things that are going to be needed in everyday life as an adult to get you places with a better chance of doing something with your life.
@@illumindonnaughty They DO help with all that in the last year of high school an they do it on top of the school curriculum. People just choose not to go or listen. If their given the opportunities and choose NOT to take that opportunity, then that's on THEM not the school
That poor young lad broke my heart talking about his dad and about his sexuality he is so insecure he has his whole life ahead of him he is handsome and has a big heart I wish him all the best in his future x
I’m really rooting for Thomas, wish him all the best for his future.
This show is like 10 years old
@@bradleymilton9372 so he's probably the CEO of a fortune 500 company now
Wonder what happened to him. The company he got a job with went bankrupt.
Hahaha. I'm a support worker. I clean toilets, scrub showers, make meals, hand feed clients, change wound dressings, shower and dress them, vacuum, mop, do their shopping, wash their clothes, make their bed. Occasionally I get to take them out to lunch or bingo etc, but the bulk is doing their day to day care they can no longer manage. If she has studied and became qualified for this, she would know this is what it entails.
I think she means she wants to be a social worker. They purely refer people to the agencies, paperwork etc.
Wait until she is old and needs looking after.
How I agree with you! I've been in social care for 25 years, and it's damned hard work for low wages. You forgot to mention the incontinence and when clients hit us, lol!
@@pumpkinseeds768 well done to you what job you do 🥰🤗
@@Michelle-qd9gm Aw, thanks Michelle! 😀
@@pumpkinseeds768 god bless you . a job you couldn't do without a big heart.
Same. Most of my clients were incontinent. It’s a lot of wiping. And this chick was gagging at food that’s good enough for the homeless.
Couldn't be more happy for Thomas. Did you see how made up and happy he was when the others got jobs? Despite the fact he'd been turned down at that point. What a genuine guy, you could see it in his face. I think sometimes a lot of pressure and adversity early in life makes people bitter and hateful, but other times it forges a diamond. I have a strong suspicion he's the latter.
Agree Thomas is a lovely guy. I hope he's happy in life now. This show shows how f*cking stupid judging people on benefits is. I think it was quite cruel to give the same group the same job interviews tbh, he must have felt awful.
It seems like they all need a hug more than a job. It's so nice she hugs them and they open up.🙌
No, they need a job. These are able bodied people with no jobs. They don't need silly hugs. They need to stop being leeches like so many of these underclass unwashed chavs.
Anyone else watching this in lockdown? After Hayley told the redhead girl to work on her appearance, I paused the video and got changed. This was my look: Torn dungarees, giant ugly purple jumper, unwashed hair, smudged glasses, dark under eye circles and dry skin, no make up. I feel better now I sorted myself out :)
That's good but you don't need make up to look good or professional
Same here, i wash my hair immediately.
@@mysterygirl30011clean hair and a neat matching outfit is a good start, you don’t have to look “glam” just put together
Hayley the Jobmother is amazing, what a gift she gives to all those people she assists to find employment.
What this demonstrates is that what people need is to be listened to and helped to identify what they have to offer. That isn't always obvious or automatic. Stop demonising people on benefits, stop demanding they just 'get a job' and *help* them. It is so much better for everyone involved.
Absolutely fantastic. Good on them all. Some of them really needed a mum figure and hug. So happy for the homeless young man.
Me too. I was so happy that young man got the second job.
A carer who doesn't actually care. Just wow. I think the truth is that she is actually sad and seeing herself in those helpless people; and that is what upsets her. There was no need for the eye rolling and gimping though. 🙄
If she thought that was bad, she wouldn't last one minute on some of the wards I've had my nursing placements in.
And said she didn't like to be helped while collecting DAILY HELP FROM SOCIETY. That girl's audacity just pissed me off.
Not actually uncommon for carers to not care. Ironic really.
Totally the wrong career for her. i was shocked, i have no idea what she actually thought she'd be doing.
Gimping 😄
Tammy should have considered she might find herself on the receiving end of the counter some day...
For me the way she behaved there or comments about people working in McDs are not far from bullying... Every job is needed and important.
she would deserve that
She already is. At the welfare office. Demanding they roll out a red carpet and blow trumpets when she walks in the door.
My 16 year old son works at McDonald’s while he waits to join the army college in March. Its a hard and demanding job and some of the abuse they get is disgusting. The way that Tammy was making faces and gipping in front of the people she was serving is disgusting. I am a social worker and believe me we see a lot worse conditions, to be a social worker you need to actually care for people no matter what they look like or even how they smell there Should be no judgement. She needs a reality check, looking at her Facebook she’s now a s mum to 3 boys so this must have been filmed a while ago hopefully she’s changed her attitude I wish them all the luck
Good luck to your boy joining the army i joined at 17 still in now nearly 20 years later and never looked back.
@@Mjk10957 thank you he’s defiantly getting impatient now he was supposed to go in September 2021 he passed his fitness test in fact he passed it that well it was good enough to get into the parras and he passed his medical until the doctor noticed he has a bit of over crowding with his front teeth and said he needed braces before he can join so we’re trying to get a dentist which is literally like pulling teeth no ones taking on and as it’s getting closer to March it’s stressing him out it’s all he’s ever wanted from being a young child and something as silly as a dental problem is standing in the way they cause him no pain and he was never planning on braces
@@jamesbeech9177 🤔 don't understand why over crowding would be a reason not to allow him to join? Also fixed braces need adjusting every 6-8 weeks and depending on complexity of treatment could take anywhere between 9-48 months
Working at McDonald's is nothing to be embarrased about. My job there allowed me to afford my college course many years ago. I'm always grateful they even gave me a chance. It also taught me a lot about working, time management, and many other aspects of the working world.
This was filmed in 2010
This is fantastic. I've watched 3 episodes and every one brought me tears. It is very difficult to get out of that situation. Such a life-changing opportunity.
I grew up in the same area as Tammy and her family . Her way of thinking is generational entitlement , one generation after the other having kids as way of easy money .
I really do hope she breaks the cycle .
She has to. You don’t get benefits for any more than 3 kids now and you’re expected to look for work from when they’re i believe 4.
Hayley is a wonderful person I wish employers at the job centre had only 5% of her enthusiasm and empathy. The key to turning lives around is to catch young people early and make them understand that their past never defines their future. They must be encouraged and by simply re-discovering their dreams believing in themselves and a future again. Lack of confidence, negative self believe and fear of the unknown is often the biggest challenge to overcome. She helped all on their way with professionalism, tough love BUT most of all the kindness and care they needed to come out of their shell and to open up. Really love this series and I hope that a lot of young people take inspiration from this because no matter where where we come from, no matter how much pain we carry inside, we can all decide on a goal and then step by step move towards it, time is a great healer but we all need to focal point in life.
It's the individuals repsonsibilty to find a job like anywhere else in the world and not the jobcenters.thry can jus show that these jobs are open..they cannot drive anyone to an employer
Interesting how Tammy really limits herself with a closed mindset. She hasnt matured since school and seems to struggle to open her mind to developing any skills or experience. I love how Hayley tells her what she sees about her negativity directly.
I love how tammy says working in MacDonalds is degrading and she wouldn't stoop that low... reality check ur lower cos ur not choosing to work. U can't stoop any lower being unemployed, not cos she has no choice she just feels entitled to get the job she desires and until that day comes she won't bother with anything 'below her' 🙄
That girl makes my teeth itch!!!
She indeed seems like a terrible person :/
I wouldn't work in Mcdonald either they are one of the worst employers plus you stink of oil, there are jobs people just won't do, if it makes you retch the jobs not for you
That rude going you can't get lower than being unemployed
As a non-native, what language is she speaking? LMAO can't understand anything she says
I think Bill is a beautiful human being, he’s got so much compassion and empathy. We need more Bills.
That comment about working in McDonalds! Oh my goodness. I hope anyone that works for McDonalds who sees this programme doesn’t take it to heart. There is pride in doing any job well and McDonalds is a harder job than than many I should imagine.
Ex Mc Donalds here. Her comment made me laugh, it's below you but you can take our tax money to live off? Nah mate you below us.
Honestly it is a important job . Just like a janitor is important every job on the planet is
Tammy has no idea what being a carer involves. There will be a lot of worse things to do than serving food to the homeless. I don't think she wants a job at all!
I freakin love love love this show! Always has me in tears when they get job offers.
Wouldn't work at McDonald's but probably alright going there and being served by those "working below her"
I know people who have worked there and it's hard work!!
Yeah, and paying for her food with benefits that McDonald employees contribute to, through by paying income tax!
My best friend worked there to help cover Uni costs, it is most definitely not an easy job, hospitality sector in general, but McDonald’s is belittled.
Agreed, you should not look down on people that are doing something for you. Those working hard and getting paid low wages should be respected and valued. I think Tammy doesn't realise that she is not better or worse than anyone else, and it is just not nice to look down on someone to make yourself feel better. But I think she will get a better perspective and understanding by actually working and having more experience.
@@a.m.3567 I did the same and it's not as easy as people seem to think, especially if your studying because you working long hours which just about pays enough for uni, going to classes an extra work when you get home and that aswell as dealing with arleast 3 or "karens" screaming at you everyday. It wasn't the best of jobs or the highest paying, but got me through uni
Not wanting to embarrass Sarah in front of the others about her appearance and personal hygiene, Hayley decides to raise the issue on national television to an audience of millions.
I think the point was to send a message across to remind everyone that presentation/looks goes a long way
when interviewing for a job.
Anyone could see she wasn't the best at personal grooming. With Hayley addressing the issue in a kind and straightforward manner, Sarah was able to make the necessary corrections. Evidently nobody has ever said these things to her, and she's suffering as a result. She obviously felt alot better and more confident after she cleaned up, and Hayley was very positive about it.
😂😂😂
This is what people need. just a small personal intimate push. People are not to stupid to work. They just dont know how to structure their daily lives and how to perform in job intervievs. Amazing how close she gets with the individuals. We need more people like her. No one would be unemployed.
There was nothing like this in the 60's to prepare you for jobs; I didn't have a great deal of confidence at interviews, and found it difficult to relate to people. It would have been great to have somebody like Hayley.
There still isn't for regular people. I've never had any problems, but many of my friends and family have. They get absolutely no help from anyone. Someone calls them every few months and tells them they should find work already, like they don't already know that. This is a tv show, nothing like the reality.
There’s nothing like this now… it’s a Tv show
Hayley is amazing, how compassionate and caring she is about everyone no matter how difficult
The young caterer, what an absolute gem. Genuine as hell, just put in a situation every one of us would struggle with.
NO I DIDNT CRY WHEN HE GOT THE JOB, was dust or..something
Wow made me cry I know how hard it is being out of work really kills your confidence well done that lady she was amazing
Omg the 3 months on bit!!! So glad they have added that on, this show is sooo goood
I work at dominos and I am proud 👏
Gee what a wonderful lady Hayley is!! They all affect me, but Thomas was so handsome, & well-spoken, I sure hope things are still working out for him xxx
She has the qualifications to be a carer, my love, 24years in healthcare .... you don't need qualifications to get into it... turn up, no convictions ... they will hand u some gloves there and then
I would say care work industries are understaffed all over the world and would welcome new interested individuals from all over.
Spot on! I've been in social care for 25 years, and nowadays if you just say that you're willing to get nvq 2, they'll start anyone on!
My mum has no qualifications or any experience in the carer industry, but 2 months ago she apied for a job in a care home and the hired her on the spot and she gets training on the job
I was born in 1955. Got my school diploma aged 16. Left my home in Spain. My parents gave me a one way ticket to The Netherlands. My biological father and his wife took me in. Within 3 months learned Dutch and found a job. I will retire in a couple of months after almost 50 years of fulltime working at least 40 hours per week, never depending on anyone else. In my large family including all those living in southern America, Spain and Germany (with one exception only), not working is a shame, something that is absolutely not done. Even in times of economic crisis like in the 80s and beginning of 2000, we never lost a job. Coincidence? I do not think so. It is a matter of wanting and willing. But I do absolutely understand some do need help......and there is Hayley for those with lesser chances.
Learned a new language and got a job within 3 months? Amazing..my mum and dad did the same as migrants - Hayley is lazy and entitled. I am so grateful my parents were hard working and not too proud to take any job that was available to them.
American, and graduated during the Great Recession. Spoke Mandarin and had a BA, but couldn't find ANY job for 9 months. Left after working 2 years to get a MA from John's Hopkins. Learned Shaanxi dialect (actually a language), worked as a professor in China. Met an Iranian, fell in love and had 2 kids. Learned Persian and Azeri Turkish. Now I'm a professor in Iran, and applying for my Italian citizenship through ancestry. Take those jobs. Be mobile. Keep updating your skills, and combine truly unique skills.
So pleased for Thomas. He seemed like a decent lad who's just took a wrong turn. Right from the start he sounded pretty well spoken . He wasn't talking in the this muttering gangsta way, and said he had a job. He just needed that bit of a rocket up the arse to get himself going again.
As for Tammy, fucking hell. Thinks shes worth more than a McDonalds worker, yet shes miserable, unemployed and doesn't even have the personality to do job she's supposedly qualified for and no-one else looking at her will think she's worth more. Miserable unhealthy looking benefit seeker. Believe me, those working at McDonalds probably have a better quality of life and prospects than she does.. My friend worked in McDonalds in his late teens, now he's a computer programmer because he used his money from McDonalds to buy his computer equipment.
This is just so rewarding to watch, Hayley is such a lovely, lovely woman and I wish everyone could have a Hayley in their lives.
They should bring this series back But only with Hayley being the presenter!!! 🙏👏
my first job whilst i was at school was McDoanlds and im proud of it
They turned me down after I graduated with a BA, because I don't speak Spanish (from San Antonio) and it was the Great Recession. Would've done it in a heartbeat, though.
Everyone needs a Hayley in their lives.
Literally every jobcentre needs one don't get work with her loose ya benefits 😂
Was für eine tolle Frau, dass sie diesen jungen Leuten hilft. Ich hoffe, dass alle einen Job gefunden haben und wünsche ihnen ein glückliches Leben🍀🙂
This is great. I did a govt run employment course way back in 1990. Was similar to this. A lovely guy called Ken ran it. And it did help me to secure work. In Christchurch, NZ. Hayley seems lovely. Inspiring. Really encouraging. Awesome show. Thanks for posting.
Another amazing thing was how I got my first full-time job back in 1995 for a call center. I signed up at a temporary job agency who found the job for me and I was only going to stay over Christmas. However, I wanted a full-time job so much that I gave it 110%. I was very polite with the customers and with my coworkers. I gave it all I had, and I was very attentive in training. One day, immediately after Christmas, my boss called me into her office and said that we really like what we hear from you and what you were doing. How would you like to join us full-time? To say the least, I was ecstatic. I said, when do I start full-time? As soon as my temporary contract is up, they told me, you will start full-time. It was amazing. I went to the temp agency and they had already heard about it, and they were so proud of me!
20:45 hahaha "and wash yer hair" good lord she is savage lol "I thought you had just came out the shower, but no it were grease" 😂😭
I thought it was harsh and unnecessary but then afterwards it was like night and day 🤣
What a wonderful mix of sensitivity, understanding and pushing forward to help people to value themselves and feel more confident to be able to work towards their futures. X
I love the 3 months on part. .....they all look so cheerful and upbeat!!!!
Hayley you are freaking awesome woman 👩 the way you bring people out of there shells and build them up to be the best they can and believe in themselves is extraordinary. You carry yourself with so much dignity and so humble your a stricter version of princess Diana hahaha i hope you keep changing peoples lives because it is beautiful to watch. Thank You love clara xxxxx
Fantastic video and may you all keep doing well, Hayley you are a Angel keep up with the great work you do, you really do help them.
Hayley is good at her job. Very rewarding it must be helping people get work. Sarah did well taking it on board and smashing it.
Bill is adorable. I’d say he’s on the spectrum.. I’m allowed to assume, I am myself 🙂 he seems like such a genuinely nice guy, just needs some confidence
Awww Haley is lovely... she's has so much emphathy yet she takes no nonsense!
The perfect kind of boss /manager in my opinion.
She has no clue I'm afraid
@@frankmangan2113 yes she does
Hayley
I was so glad to see them get the job opportunities they wanted. Hayley has such a good heart. She's one of those gems that make a huge lasting difference in people's lives. I really feel for young people struggling to get a job, especially these days. Their confidence gets pounded flat from rejection after rejection despite putting in the effort. I think most people can relate to that at some point in life. I know I do because I experienced it when I finished school a long time ago. It's hard but people need to remember they're worth it. Your life can change for the better so quickly, so never give up.
I wish we had a careers lady like Hayley when we were at school. I'll never forget my careers talk\meeting.. she was bored, didn't help me with ideas. I hadn't a clue what I'd be when I left school. I hadn't even considered further education. I was only young. She told me I'll be a flower arranger . I'm sure it's a great job but I didn't feel inspired once I'd been told that's my career path set in stone. Everyone else got lawyer or veterinarian. I got that. FFS. So anyway.. if you need any flowers arranging... I'm your mermaid.
You had a careers talk? Nobody ever even asked me bar - are you going to uni yes or no
My career talk was bunk as well
You're lucky. Because I didn't want to go to Uni or Teacher Training college, I was told my best avenues would be policewoman, nurse or secretary. Maybe if they'd looked at what I was actually good at they might have told me graphic designer, journalist or social worker ... Anyway, that was back in 1971, and one can only hope that times have changed since then! _PS_ I've done many and various interesting things in life - all my choice.
My career talk was crap as well. They didn't give me any advice at all.
If you'd failed the 11+you as a girl where recommend Woolworths, if a lad the army.
Haley you are really a wonderful person. You really help this people I think they don't appreciate you but you get the job done
Does anyone else get Charity Shop Sue vibes?😅 Love Hayley so much😍😂😂😂
Yes I was thinking I wonder if her character is based off Hayley! 😂
Job Networking Agencies take note:
This is the approach you need to adopt if you want to be successful in getting your clients off welfare & back into the workforce.
So far after watching this series it's great to see that Hayley's method & approach to job seeking is highly successful & ACTUALLY WORKS!
I've participated in jobclubs over the years but not one has offered me the chance to do real work experience in a real work environment organised by the jobclub leader (who really didn't seem to give a s**t). All I did was sit in a classroom with a group of half a dozen other welfare recipients & waste my time doing extensive jobsearch & applying for jobs I knew I didn't stand a chance at getting & repeatedly practice interview techniques which I already knew. Out of all the positions I applied for I didn't gain employment, but if Hayley's caring attitude & technique were to be implemented here in Australia, I'm certain there would definitely be a noticeable difference in jobseeker's self esteem & self confidence.
Older jobseekers as well as young, single parents - she doesn't discriminate or make fun of. Everyone who participates is treated equally & with utmost respect, no matter what current life circumstance they're in. No-one gets left behind. Home visits are a bonus too! Ordinary jobclubs don't offer this. They get paid to do a job & don't show any compassion about their client's circumstances, low self-esteem/low self-confidence whatsoever. Getting out of the jobseeking rutt can be tiresome & extremely daunting, but with Hayley's proven method she makes it much easier to get out of.
I'm also impressed with Hayley's hands-on, caring approach & attention to those on welfare who display low self-esteem/low self-confidence. This can really impact on those seeking work, especially for those who've been on the welfare treadmill for years, sometimes decades. After years of knockbacks, for some it can be extremely daunting seeking work. Hayley has proven her technique has worked wonders with these people who are looked down upon in society.
I also like the idea of her secretly listening in on the job interview. This way, feedback can be given on how well the interviewee answers questions during the interview (if it's recorded) & if the jobseeker is unsuccessful in gaining a position, playing back the recorded interview can help improve answering questions/interview techniques next time.
Hayley, you're simply an awesome woman, dedicating your life to helping! I just wish there more people like you in the world!!!
Hayley is incredible. Such an inspiration
My very first job was working in McDonald's when I left school it's a very demanding work environment and it gives you great communication and team work skills giving you great confidence which is key to progressing yourself, and now from having those skills and going into education Im now nursing in a hospital. it's incredibly insulting that tammy thinks it's deemed low to work there it's a sad negative attitude I do hope she has changed and got herself into work.
Customer service is imperative to a lot of jobs! Why would you not want to get some in a busy environment? 🤷♀️
Nothing wrong with working in MC Donald's i heard MC Donald's pays for a lot of there staff to go and do educational courses to help them with getting a better paid job. I can't stand people who judge people on the work they do.
Really?
Really they do that? I better do some research about that to find out more. Not saying I’m gonna go work at McDonald’s I already have a job but just out of curiosity
Yes I totally agree with you
The real burden on our economy are the billionaires. I'm all for people having jobs if they can but a lot of welfare cuts are just kicking people while they're down.
Thomas is a darling kind intelligent man . I wish him the best of luck
Tammy is a disgrace.She does not want to work in any job but she happily gets the money from the taxpayers.She wants to work in care but is not a caring person at all,starts having attitude and rolling eyes in disgust in the homeless centre.Without the handouts from the taxpayers she would be eating there too.
Love this show! More episodes please!
She’s like jo frost but for job seekers 😂
What disgusts me is the "degrading" of workers that get a career in a fast food establishment such as McDonalds. McDonalds can offer it's employees the eventual opportunities to achieve management status and from there that can move on to area manager, etc. It can also give skills such as stock ordering and managing the store making sure things are clean, etc. There is nothing to be ashamed from doing that job. Ignorant people like Tammy most likely expect to eat in a McDonalds and expect a good service despite their low appreciation for the staff.
A friend of mine's family got so uppity, their son thought he was too good for McDonald's. He ended up not getting any work and once in his mid 20s, he became unemployable no one would have him (including McDonald's) - he was too old and had no work experience.
His mum got fwd up with him living at home, so pays his rent for years and ongoing.
Tammy would be the worst social worker on the planet. She's been to college and come away with an attitude higher than her qualifications.
Oldest looking 20 year old I’ve ever seen
his eyes remind me of kylie minogues since 2007 after her severe eyebrow n eyelid lift (she denies it)
Ohhhh Tammy, even the highest clinic nurse will go to the kitchen and get food for their patients, and then feed them. Nobody is above anything.
I've seen chief nurses act as porters when needed and registered managers of nursing homes do laundry. No one in social care is above any job required to care for service users. Tammy appears to have no idea
@@alice80122I work in the nhs and no matter what job title you are no manager can just turn up in laundry and work machines without training so that’s lies sorry
If I had been in Hayley‘s place and seen Tammy‘s disgraceful behaviour because she’s too good for „the dirty homeless“ then I would have made sure her next work experience was in a care home for the old, washing and changing nappies, under time constraints no less! You want to work in care? That’s great, we need you, but we don’t need your ego!
Don't the incapacitated elders deserve better than dealing with the attitude. That arrogance can easily become abusive
Every job centre needs a hayley she is just fantastic I love everything about her
“Bullying has made me the person I am today” a jobless snob? Hmmmm….
I was jobless after leaving college for 1 year then at 19 worked as a part time customer assistant in food retail. I am now 3 years later a store manager for the same company.
Wow... well done
30:30 She's too good and over-qualified to work at McDonald's yet she interviews like that? A typical McDonald's recruiter wouldn't giver her a mop job.
Worked in a bingo hall after graduating with a degree at uni, as to me, work is work! Money is money!
Wouldnt want to embarass sarah in front of the rest of the group. Will film it for tv though.
Ok.
It was obvious.
This was filmed in 2010, would love to see an update now 13 years on
Does anyone have an update on Bill? Hope he’s doing good. He’s pulled at my heartstrings 😢
I’d love to know too. I hope he’s alright
Having a 20 year old daughter who's at the university and stresses over the unbelievably difficult job matket in Greece where we live, this video really made cry. So inspiring and so positive.
No nandy Tandy treatment, honest , critical and essential life skills provided for the real world . brilliant Hayley
Namby pamby?
Tammy seems to want a job as CEO with no experience. Haley is right, tammy is being a job snob.
Not everyone loves their job, but we do it for an income.
Tammy doesn't want help but she's on benefits
I have co-workers who obviously come to work for the money and not the love for the profession. One of my fellow co-workers openly has said to our director "Thank you for the extra shift tomorrow because I'm thinking of the money." With a smile on her face. I was gob smacked.
And when it came down to it she wouldn’t have been able to carry off an interview for McDonald’s but I wish her well
I do my job because I’m good at it. But I don’t like it. I do it for the money
@@rosiesummer2711 What do you work as Rosie?
I have a well paid job in a profession. However, if I did become unemployed and could not get work I would absolutely not sit at home and let the state pay my bills. I would work in any job just to get out, interact with other people, and feel that I was supporting myself.
There's nothing wrong with working at fast food places. Especially for young people, the skills developed include time management, health and safety awareness, customer service, working under pressure in a fast-paced environment, and many more skills that are beneficial to you and your next employer
So, because she didn't want to embarrass Sarah in front of the others, she did it on national TV instead...where the others would have seen it anyway. Genius...
What is wrong working in McDonald Tammy?? Is a proper job that deserves respect, you earn it yourself and not rely on handouts.
Nothing wrong working in Mcdonalds. I used to have 5 p/t jobs at once including cleaning jobs. I worked extremely hard for a period of my time and now I had paid off my mortgage early enough to be able to enjoy my life now on p/t job only.
It was not easy but I want to prove to myself that it can be done.
I thank my younger self looking after the older me!
My motto is: work when you can and when you can't, thank your younger self for making such wise decision to provide for your future self!!
It's not just Tammy that looks down her nose at jobs, I told the job center I wanted a cleaning job, a number of the people who worked there pulled faces and said really?? Nowhere could open if they hadn't been cleaned for goodness sake. I love my job,
A very positive watch
Well done to you all 👍
Tammy is something else!! Who the FUCK does she think she is?!! Ffs! Who is she to look down on people?! Nobody has the right to do that
Working at McDonald's is not degrading. Look at how many people eat there. They need to have a good experience and giving them that is a good thing for an employee to do. Also McDs will take an interest in people and promote them. If you show you are up for it you can rise through their ranks. Everyone has to start somewhere. I think it is really bad manners to suggest McD staff are low. They are people working for a better life. So many people want a fast clean place to eat. The staff doing this are good workers.
I really hope that they have grown in confidence and kept their work whatever direction they chose to go in they are all each such lovely characters and genuine people I was so pleased to see how well you all done.
I don't think not wanting to do certain jobs is necessarily job snobbery, although when it came to Tammy and McDonalds it was. I think sometimes it's about knowing yourself well enough to know what you wouldn't cope with.
Yeah like sensitive people couldn't work in a hospital if blood freaks them out. I know people who don't swim because they hate feet
@@nifralo2752 I was going to say autistics couldn't do some jobs due to sensory issues. Actually, sales would be the worst job for an autistic. Some might be able to handle a customer service call centre job as long as there was no upselling, and making outbound calls was a very rare occurence.
@@stillnotscaredofspiders I'm in a call center and I have aspergers
@@nifralo2752 How much of it involves selling?
