I'm on welfare in france, and sometimes I wonder if the government is going to find some excuse to stop giving me money.

Could be "not applying to enough job offers", while most employers are always complaining about candidates not being skilled enough, which is why unemployment is so high.

This is happening to my half-sick mother, right now, 6 months before retirement (!), because Pôle Emploi is seemingly unable to both check its own database for the presence of a recent job offer she was rejected from and also to reply to (or even read ?) the (e-)mail pointing this out that has been sent to it. Going to have to seize the Ombudsperson now...
