These 80k London jobs... For Swiss?

[hugebrain]

Ok, there's a very long and dull thread about 80k permie jobs in London...

It occurred to me that this might be the ideal rate for a friend of mine in Switzerland. It's just under the amount you get in unemployment benefit. So, theoretically he could take a rubbish job like this and benefits would top it up to a slightly more reasonable 124K.

Has anyone tried this? Does it really work?

He can do this, but after three months the benefits will stop. And he has to have been on benefit for at least three months already.

Wasn't this sockie's sockie banned yesterday?

I’ll tell him not to bother then, unless he can find a badly paid job for just three months, which seems unlikely.
