The Advantages of Being a Temp

  • You're only lending your soul, not selling it.
  • You won't be there when the fruits of your labor turn rotten.
  • Trying on a different personality at each new job site.
  • You don't have to continually fork over part of your paycheck for co-workers' weddings, babies, birthdays and anniversaries, or children's school, scouts, athletic, and band fund-raising efforts.
  • No one gives you clothes emblazoned with the company logo and then expects you to wear them.
  • You can avoid the internal "war." I once temped at an office so divided and filled with hate, one half wouldn't even speak with the other... it was my job to convey messages between the enemy camps.
  • Your true Pointy-Haired Boss is usually miles away...and the "customer" PHB can (often) be ignored.
  • Overtime at time and a half! Woo-Hoo!
  • Leaving at 4:30.
  • Eight Words: "It was like that when I got here."
  • You get to hear the words, "Good job" and, 'Please stay" frequently.
  • When the company goes out backwards your resume says you worked for an agency.
  • You don't give a rat's hoohaa what the stock is doing.
  • I know my end date. The directs don't.
  • It's like being the only lemming in the group with a parachute...
