   Indeed. The duct cleaners call from India, and you can hear the   
   babbling in the background.   
      
   I recognize that someone in council housing, is likely   
   caught in the same trap as individuals here, where you cannot   
   get ahead by working, unless you have a job with an enormous income.   
   Which just isn't going to happen.   
      
   As an example of the irony here, a woman who works for some   
   government department, helping low income people find   
   a place to stay, *herself* sleeps on someone elses couch...   
   because she cannot find a place to stay with a reasonable   
   rent. Her income is not high enough to pay for an apartment.   
      
   I didn't intend that response to sound like an answer,   
   because it isn't really.   
      
   But at least technically, there are jobs you can do from home.
