I am job searching at the moment for a temporary postion to cover me the next few months and came across quite an interesting one on the jobcentreplus website so I phoned them up and they ask for your national insurance number etc and then give you job details including contact numbers or address which is usual. So I was given some woman called Carol (management I presume) to call so I did that in my nicest, politest voice and she was really off-hand. She said in a horrid tone 'Why are you phoning me for? The jobcentre should have called me first with your details.' and she said it so nastily as if it was my fault! Then she huffed and puffed and said, 'come in for an interview this afternoon'...errr, it would be nice to ask if I was free in short notice so I promptly hung up.
Was I unreasonable?
