Please only answer if you know..... ie you were a temp and now perm after being hired by the company, or you are a manager her HR rep who uses Temp agencies. THANKS!
I am in a temp to hire position my hire date is in a few weeks, I am pretty sure the company will ask me to stay so thats not a problem. My question is, I was hired at one pay, upon them asking me stay and be hired on by them what are my rights as far asking for a raise, since they pay me one price and the temp agency another for using me. Any ideas?

I haven't worked other than odd and end jobs cleaning houses in over a year & a half since I had a high risk pregnancy with my daughter.All I wanted to do is stay home with her and not miss anything her 1st year.But now she will be 1yr old in 2 wks and I am feeling pressure from my husband to help pay the bills but he doesn't want me to put her in daycare but I don't have anyone to keep her and the truth is that I am lost.I have a diploma in medical claims but there are no openings in our area for this field.Does anyone have any ideas on what I can do for a job so that I don't have to be away from my daughter very much.Or ideas to solve the problem of someone to care for her while I work.

I don't know what to major in college, or what to be for a living. So I'm letting you guys choose it for me!

And don't give me all that "Well, whatever you're good at, or what you're interested in" crap.

I work in a law office. Most of the lawyers are very professional, except that one guy.. you know who he is. He curses, he uses foul vile dirty language around women, men, young, old. He's a jerk basically. Would you pay that kind of a person to be your lawyer?

I noticed a high turn over rate where I work. Also I have noticed that some of my previous full time employers are using strictly part time labor because they don't have to pay them any benefits. If this trend is true is it bad news for the labor force? I am talking about semi-skilled and skilled labor. It appears that our work force is being reduced to the level of peasant labor.

I graduated from law school and am a newly licensed attorney in my state, but at this time, the idea of being a lawyer does not interest me. I'm particularly interested in lobbying, however, because my presumptions are that it provides for more interaction with others, allows me to affect decision-making of others, and potentially provides for more immediate gratification (as opposed to the drawn-out cat-and-mouse game of litigation). Can anyone provide any further insight into this field and how I could potentially get involved in it, not on a voluntary basis but on a professional level? A further presumption is that this field relies heavily on who you know.

My potential employer has invited me in for a meeting on Friday to discuss an offer. Over the phone the HR lady gave me a few details, base salary, benefits etc. She said that the meeting would consist of them listing my duties, explaining how I can earn my bonus etc. Do I have negotiating room here? How do I write an offer of acceptance or a counter if that is what it is called. My base salary is decent, the bonus is only 5% ...not a whole lot..

I've applied to several places over the last few weeks and I haven't gotten a call back from anyone. I have a great work history and I'm a student as well. Any ideas on why I haven't gotten any callbacks and how I would go about finding out why I wasn't hired. Any feedback will help. Thanks!

The article below presents a solution to a staffing problem.
A. True
B. False
C. Can't tell from the text

Businesses often have problems with finding the right employees. However, problems with staffing and retention may not be due to people who are hired and do not work out or a low unemployment rate. In fact, they may be connected to poor management understanding of how employees fit into the business strategy.
Creating a strategic plan and definitive initiatives is the easy part of the formula for success. The difficult part is finding, recruiting and retaining the appropriate talent combination in today's market to carry out that plan.
Staffing and retention are major issues in service industry businesses today.
How does the service industry not only recruit new talent, but protect the employees they have? Questions about payment, training, incentives, benefits and work environment will therefore become more important.

what do you think is the right answer? thanks
