not sure how IA is but it seems EVERYONE around here is hiring , news paper adds , radio adds , I was up and down the Mississippi the last 2 weeks and lots of hiring signs.
if there was ever a time to go looking for a new job that starts at 15-16 an hour this is it
you see what doesn't make sense is the company pays several dollars an hour more for you at the temp agency than you get.
they must really hate you to keep the option of letting you go with no strings attached always on the table especially while they hire others full time non temp.
from your posts you sound your like a dog that gets kicked and keeps coming back , either there is something very questionable about your work or they just like to kick you.
time to go looking for other work it seems to be everywhere , employers offering 2500-6500 dollar signing bonuses , 15-16 and hour plus starting for material handlers jobs.
this could just be age discriminations if your work is all good , they don't want you retiring on them the minute you get vested in their pension.
try and look 10 years younger if possible and go looking for a job there are lots of them out there.
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

When I had to work with/for Temp Services, they usually only had a 2-3 week minimum before you could apply with the company for FT Employment. Many employers use temp services to cull workers, to see if your worth a crap. before hiring you full time.

I wouldn’t even pay you $13 an hour Canadian. You seem to have a very poor attitude and don’t listen to constructive criticism. Your communication/spelling skills are childish. You are very lucky to have that job and I bet you won’t quit even if they lowered your pay to $5/hour.

I have to see in 9 days if raise, just so they don't do something real mean like decide pay me minuim wage because think go quit , I guess could try go thru sedonna for $15 hr, if don't come thru, wonder if express could gype me last or 2 last checks if think go quit like ssy we go drop from $13 hr to $7 hr ? Dave, are you reading the information the other posters have put on here? How many times will you worry about what "might or might not" happen to you at work? Waiting 9 more days will only bring you more of the same regarding your feelings about your job. Nothing will change until you do. I worked in a factory for over 32 years, both as a machinist and a quality assurance auditor. I dealt with many types of people every day. Some were easy to deal with, some were convinced that everything bad that happened to them was because the company or someone at work was out to get them. I can tell you from first hand experience, if a person is willing to put out negative comments about their place of employment, on line, then they are most likely complaining at work too, to someone. Rest assured, your comments are known to more than just those of us on this site. I wish you no ill will, and I do not doubt you are as hard a worker as you say you are, but you have to look out for yourself as nobody else will. Working harder may mean finding a different and better paying job. In that case, you would be working smarter then too. Best of luck to you in what ever you decide to do. I will look forward to meeting you at Spencer next month too.

Is Coonman real or is it someone on here with a pseudo account? Only reason I ask is I knew a guy that did something exactly like this on another account. There’s no way anyone has this bad of luck and constantly complaining about the same things over and over without changing his lifestyle or employment or vehicle, lol. I was wondering the same thing.

Adam,temporary agencies have an agreement with the companies they send employees to. If the company hires a temp worker,they must pay the temp agency a certain amount. Tom Yes, kinda..... They have an agreement for a certain amount of hours. Typically they dont go much past 700 hours. What I would do id as that 700 hour mark is approaching start working with management to become a direct EE. It will save the company money and make you money. You have to stay on yhem though because many times the low level managers don't see the bottom line.

Employers hire people to make them (the employer) money. They do not want no shows. They dont get ahead that way. If you cant find a better job its because your either not looking or your a lousy worker.
Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

Tom With Sedona it is half what the worker is paid , so $13.05 /2 equals Sedona gets $6.50. They have a contract for so many hours (500) before the company can hire them direct. I know this for fact as my wife manages a company and they hire through sedona in Iowa.

I’ve given you advice before, just like many MANY others here have too! You continue doing things your way and keep complaining about it. I still wish you the best, but you need tough love. Probably should have gotten it 45 years ago.

In this current job market if you are working for a temp agency its your own fault. There is more options for anyone who wants to better their situation than almost anytime in recent history. Go get a real job and let the temp agency find another sucker.
