You have to admit that white collar temp workers have a better understanding of what is happening to them than blue collar workers.

@Motelcalifornia2 In one way you are right. White collar workers can handle the details better. But I find that the white collar workers are less able to handle the dishonesty of the employers and the judge's insinuations that the claimants are guilty of something. They also are very bad at stretching out their resources when the UI decision goes against them- a lot end up homeless. Even winning their appeals can't get them their homes back once they are evicted.

All I can say is that I feel like being dropped in the middle of a three way conversation without a begining, end, or a point to make. Please take my advice: if you have truely good story, construct it like you were presenting it to a audience and make it like a news story stucture: Most relivent information stated from top to bottom, and make a point or have an objective. I wanted to hear you out but I can't follow the loose transactional conversation / sketch like presentation.

@indysoundman1 Thank you for the constructive feedback. We'll see what we can do to improve. Be aware that there are about 20 unposted client videos in the can. So it may take a while for any improvements to show up.

I cant follow the story, what happened?

[cmhservices]

@giveme5mins Oh yeah. Sorry, I forgot to UL the other parts of this video. Several other videos with other employees should be up in the next few days. Here are the other two parts.

@zRev1983 Thanks for the support. We try our best. You'll see more of this in other videos that haven't been uploaded yet due to technical issues. They should be up in the next few weeks. If you live in New York City you can catch them on Cable or FIOS TV where they are already being broadcast.

This is some bullshit. Playing games with people's lives.

That is the exact same thing that happened to me. I worked for an agency for 3 months, did what was expected of me, didn't miss a day of work. I even worked 36 hours ot for one week. If thats not enough to set a good example I don't know what is. I'm just trying to make some money. This is a billion dollar company by the way. The last day one of the top bosses makes up some lame excuse about sensor lights. I can right a page on the stupidity of this company but my head hurts thinking about it.

Thats wrong momma.

@Mississippiking03 I agree, in twenty years of full-time work I never heard of more than a handfull of people getting permanent work from a temp agency. They lie about that all of the time. "this is a temp to perm job." "for the right candidate." A company pays a lot of money if they decide to hire you, so most will not do it. They rather just pay the agency to send people out, as needed. And most of the time that is every day

I worked for a temp agency last year. They always had work for me, but they were not what I would consider long term jobs. I mean I was a fork-lift operator for an appliance distributor. And the only reason why they hired me, well they had to recall dryers. They made the decision to replace a part in the warehouse, because it was cheaper then going to someone's home. I liked the job, but it was not a long term assignment. I would literally just drive all day, and a tech would replace
