Have you discussed with your work coach why those jobs are unsuitable for you?

Are they being inflexible?

If you feel your work coach is ignoring your health needs in relation to working, you can ask for a different coach.

Thank you yes i told him i had anxiety and could only work alone when i first went ,i got paid off the end of December and have seen him every week since January but he seems annoyed ? he shrugged and put his hands up when i was there last week when i told him those jobs where unsuitable when he suggested a unsuitable job, i did not no i could ask for a different work coach ,i am worried of causing ill feeling if i do so will see how it goes this week and ask to change if he still the same ,thank you
