This was a quote on our local Facebook page.

The discussion was about a letting agent advertising a property to let, the advert stipulated applicants must be in full time employment.

The poster was a young man of around 30!

AIBU to think that it’s entitled to think that young healthy people should be only in part time employment and possibly claiming top ups from the government?

People like employers and landlords have no business prying into your private financial affairs so long as you meet the terms of your contract with them.
Agreed. I can understand a landlord wanting to see payslips, but so long as the nett amount covers the rent it shouldn’t matter how many hours it represents.
