JOB AD BAN IS JUST PLAIN CRAZY By Geoffrey Lakeman, The Mirror, UK
A BOSS had her job ad banned - because it asked for "hard-working" staff.

Beryl King was told by a Jobcentre that it discriminated against people who were not industrious.

Yesterday Beryl, 57 - who was after warehouse workers - said: "I couldn't believe my ears. Has our world gone mad?

"I've been running my business for 27 years and it's getting harder to find people who want to do a fair day's work for a fair day's pay.

"How long before someone says you can't pay people for working because it discriminates against those on benefit who are paid for not working?"
