Fills the gaps on your CV. employers don't like to see gaps.
(put forced to work as a slave for 4 weeks)

Gives you a moral boost for doing something with yourself.
(as long as you stop remembering that you were forced to do this, and you don't mind the person who gets a full wage telling you to do the hard work. then you should be ok)

Helps keep the tax payers happy.
(that you're the main reason why this country doesn't have to employ anyone anymore, because the government introduced a 'free workers farm' for companies to take a handful from.

Back to the new entry on your CV.
