maybe some good news...

for the past 3 months ive been working this cake walk of a job. i was told it would only be temporary for a month. i was okay with it at the time cause i had just quit my previous job and needed some income. as each month passes they extended my date and here i am.
today i get a call from the temp service saying they want to keep me for one more month so i can train some guy who has been working with this company for years upon years. he pretty much asked to be transferred here cause its such an easy ass job.
the temp service had left out a few details so i decided to call my bosses boss to get the full swing of things and she broke the shit down like a boss.
as of now the company im with is working on 7 new accounts, LARGE accounts. if these accounts are picked up then the guy who wants my job will be in charge of those accounts. better position for him and im sure its more money. it was explained that if he is put in charge then i will be kept here in my current position, but as a full time employee. this is good. easy job and ill be making a bit more money.
heres what im thinking...
my 90 day evaluation is coming up through the temp service which means i am eligible for hiring. this could be a quick interview to see if im actually worthy of being hired on...
or
they have no intentions of keeping me here. my only purpose is to baby sit until this other guy comes into the picture. id just be tossed away once he gets here...
or
its exactly what the boss lady was saying. if this company picks up the accounts then i will stay as a full time employee while this other guy moves up in the world.
honestly, i have horrible luck when it comes to jobs so im pretty sure i will be tossed to the curb at the end of this 30 day run...

I'd say just remain positive and continue busting ass. You've made enough of an impact on your bosses that they were willing to divulge that information to you, as well as give you the responsibility of training someone. So I would say saddle up and ride the shit out of this opportunity.

Before I decided to work for myself I tried a bunch of jobs. You'll find the right fit, whether it is this nice, cushy job or some other. Be flexible and think positive thoughts and good things will follow.

I've been fucked by temp services in the past. They suck..I hate them..lol but it's easy to find a job with them. If I were you, I would just keep busting my ass and show the company you're worthy. It may work out for you.
The last time I worked through a temp service, I worked for a company that I had worked for a couple years ago through a different temp service. They told me after 90 days I would be hired on, blah blah blah. Well there were people working with me who had been through the temp service for over a year. I worked for about 6 months, no raise, nothing. They kept bullshitting me around. I busted my ass and did everything in the company. Most people worked in one department. I worked in 3. When I finished one area, i'd go to the other. Even the fulltime employees weren't trained to do that. They ended up laying me off. Didn't give me a reason. I was never late, missing days, and did my jobs very well. Fuck 'em though. I got a badass job a week later that paid double what they were paying.
Good luck.

ive been dealing with them for over 6 years now and they do suck. i cant understand why there cant be an honest temp service who actually wants to see you succeed and move on.
