When I got home tonight I got a call from the Temp Agency telling me today was my last day at work. I thought I was doing a good job, I didn't make any mistakes. Go figure!!! I am so upset!!!!

Chin up Wheezie.....that's the nature of temp jobs. You were looking for a job when you found this one and you will find another because you are a tough lady.

Wheezie.................when you go to a Temp Agency, that's what happens. It's only temporary - sometimes leading into a permanent position. I know when I was working we had temps for awhile. Then they let them go. It wasn't that they weren't doing a good job. It was just that they didn't need them anymore. Chin up - you'll find something else.

Wheezie, I am sure you did nothing wrong. Sometimes the cost of temporary agency employees is excessive and when a company realizes total cost, they determine it is better to bring on someone in an on-call or regular temporary status. When a door closes, a window opens. I do pray for you and will continue to do so. I just wish I knew someone up in your area who could help you with a job search. Have you considered business for yourself and doing books at home for small companies and/or doctos...dentists??? When I lived in Long Beach, CA I put an ad in the paper indicating that I was an excellent girl Friday with excellent experience and within two days I had a call. Got the job and it paid well. Did have to quit it after the boss made a disgusting pass at me, but of course, I was 21 at the time.
Keep your chin up lady. Things are going to get better.

I spoke to the agency again today, and they said it just wasn't a "good fit". Maybe I'm too old for them!!!

:)Wheezie.................don't take it personal. I'm sure it doesn't have anything to do with your age. They just had to say something. Don't worry, you'll find something better!

Not a good fit sounds like the old "age" issue coming up. They say that so you can't sue for discrimination based on age. Sickening! You probably worked circles around the younger employees.
