But, as far as they're concerned, doing SFA is their 'job'. It's what
they 'do'. And we're daft enough to pay them for doing it.

Divide their benefit by the minimum wage to work out how many hours
we're paying them for and then give them that many hours of work to
do.


That would be more than a 40 hour week for some people.
