Today I went to a temp agency. (Not Mr. Temp w/ an Attitude, I would not give him the time of day)! Three hours of waiting, filling out forms, and taking demeaning tests later I find out that no only do they have no work for me but they are not sure when they will. ummmmm. Then one of them told me with a big permanent plastic smile that they look forward to working with me. clearly. As I left I felt slightly bad for the next poor sucker who had to endure the same freakishly large smile and faux friendliness. This is such crap! I am begging them to help me find some 11 dollar an hour job as a secretary? I was not trained to be a secretary! They did not seem excited when I told them I DID NOT want temp-to-perm because I have other plans come Fall. Less commission for them I guess. Is New York just about the "mighty" dollar? Say it isn't so!
