It's weird how some wouldn't fancy hiring people who live not far away but have to use public transport but are fine with some who live miles away that can drive a car.

Are they though, or is it the workfare scheme doing the rejecting?? I work with people across a number of large employers, and I've never heard of people being refused interviews based on this. It's the sort of thing I'd hear about too.
