I’m a few months into a pip claim, I’ve had acknowledgment but no assessment yet. I’ve sent proof of diagnosis dated 12th Dec.. July I made the claim, maybe June
anyways I’ve just had capability work assessment. Shall I send a copy of there decision as pip evidence? The decision is supportive, even thou I work.

lol i wouldnt bother with DWP ever again in my life even if i needed them badly. its not worth the hassle. they will only stress you and demonise you and try make you out to be a criminal. they are actually harmful to mental health, which is funny because they supposed to be helping not harming.
That's definitely the experience I've had with the Jobcentre in the past. I remember watching a documentary a few years ago where someone had gone undercover, worked there for a bit, and recorded conversations. They had competitions to see how many people they could sanction - with relish. For those not in the know, a sanction stops benefit payments which can be the difference, for some people, between heating or eating. I'm going to see what happens with this PIP.
aye they have sanction targets too, gov sets each dwp advisor a target of how many people they have to sanction each week and they have to meet that, just like a aldi worker has a scanning target of how many items they have to scan per second.

There's a hilarious meme about that somewhere on the wide web. I've got it saved on my laptop but can't upload it.
Three items a second, I believe is the target. I wonder how many jars of bolognese sauce end up on the floor.
