Well, that didn't last long.

I just got off the phone with the temp agency, and they told me that Eddy wanted today to be my last day since I "didn't seem to want to file."

Yes, I was having a difficult time figuring out the details of their filing system. It's one of the most complex I've ever seen, and I haven't had a job that called for filing per se in about 5 years.

However, should I be punished because the woman who was supposed to train me was distracted since the day I started there due to her son's illness and has been out at least part of almost every day? Should I be punished because two of the people I was told I could ask if I didn't understand something were out on vacation for parts of the 8 days I've been there? Should I be punished because I wanted to know how high a priority I should place on a specific task, if it was something I needed to drop everything to do right that minute or if it could wait until I finished the task I was doing?

I think that I went through Kelly when I was at GE and was happy with them. Of course that was different because I got the job at GE through my sister but then they put it through the temp agency...which worked out better for both of us...I got a better pay rate and they didn't have to pay benefits. Anyway, if I didn't go through Kelly for GE then I went through it at some other time in my life and was happy. I've also done tons of temp work and really liked it...it's a great way to try on jobs and more often than not can lead to a permanent position. Good luck! Keep at it...it will work out if you are persistent enough! :) Christa
