Have you ever worked for or are currently working for this company? I was looking into this and wanted to seek others experience with them. I see they are registered with BBB and been around for about 10 years. Let me know how you liked/ disliked it.

I heard temp jobs pay better than permanent ones because they don't give you benefits. Recently I got interviewed by a staffing company RANDSTAD and they asked my salary expectation. I asked them back what would be the range they offer? They gave me a number which is the same as a permanent position will offer me.
If I move on in the hiring process and got the offer, how much is there to negotiate? I don't know what is the normal percentage a temp agency offers you compare with what they will get from their client. Will they be willing to give me more? Can't believe I will have no benefits but get the same money as a permanent worker...
The other thing is I heard after your assignment, if you want to get a permanent position within the client company, it is not possible for you to move without your agency? So what would exactly happen there? I've heard things like the company can hire you only after 6months. So how is my relationship with the agency after my temp assignment?

I have been working at my place of business for about 3 years now and it has just recently changed ownership. I know that there is both a replacement for myself and my boss, but still no one has told me anything as to when I'll be leaving. My old boss is going to pay me for yesterday and Monday, but now for the rest of the week, I have no idea how I am going to get paid being that I don't even think the new owner has an account set up. I was hoping that they would've gotten rid of me already in all honesty, because I hate that they think I am at their beck and call until they decide to give me the ole' pink slip. Does anyone else think there is something wrong with this picture? What would you do if you were in my shoes?

Seems like a lot of them can't get along over an extended period of time. In our office, we have at least three "secretary squabbles" a week.

- Don't ask for time off, I just send people e-mail that I am taking a couple of days off.
- Keep my head phones on at work, listening to music on my iPod, ignoring the world around me..
- Invite the CEO (also a retired four star USAF General) to my myspace account, so he can keep-up to whatever I am doing.
- Don't help my co-workers
- Say nasty things about the corporation I work for in a Blog on mysapce, I'll use my real name.
- Call people on the weekend for work related issues
- Kiss people's behinds, fake smiles.

I've been flirting with the secretary at work for some time now, and not only has she been receptive, but has been flirting quite a bit herself. So this past week, I decided to take it up a notch, and I slipped a naked picture of myself in her briefcase as it was sitting beside her desk, with a note on it asking if she liked what she saw.
As it turns out, our boss has a briefcase that looks exactly like hers and had leaned it up against her desk that morning while he went off to the coffee machine. So, instead of placing the picture in her briefcase, I put it into his by mistake.
Well, now he's coming onto me, as he apparently is gay. Ironically, I never saw that one coming, he's married with a couple of kids. How do I let him down easily without hurting his feelings or loosing my job?

I have my Diploma (Associate's Degree without the general education classes) in Administrative Support. I am currently attending school for a Business Degree. My resume basically consists of cashier work, but I want to get out of that area. I have knowledge and experience from school work in MS Office (except for Access which I've used maybe twice) and can type around 55-60 wpm. The problem is, I have come across a lot of these positions that only require a high school diploma, but 2 or 3 years of experience. My first question is, how do I create a resume that will get attention since my current one isn't working?
My next question is, how does this whole get experience when you don't have experience thing work?
Any useful suggestions would be wonderful.

I work at a CPA firm and I paid to become a QuickBooks ProAdvisor, out of my pocket, and completed the course on my own time to become certified.
Things have been slow at work and my boss asked me to load the company QuickBooks onto another employees computer and to give her some pointers on how to use QuickBooks.
Am I wrong to not want to show her how to use QuickBooks? Am I being selfish?
I became certified hoping to get more work - which I have - and hopefully to get a raise - which I haven't. I wanted to find a "nitch" were I could excel in something that would be beneficial to the office and our clients.

Millions of applications filled out, your resume is in every companies hands and 10 years experience + college... yet can't find a job. Common phrase "Sorry, your over qualified for the positions we have open." What does that mean? Do companies want morons working for them to save on the overhead cost?

I'm an administrative assistant in an open-office enviroment. There is a man that works nearby that is always coming over and bothering me. He comes behind my desk, picks things up ON MY DESK, and comes over and leans on my cubical and stares down my shirt. Everytime I wear a new shirt or change my haircolor he always comes over and starts asking me about it. He walks by me and says things like "Still happily married?" and laughs it off.
It's really bothering me. I've tried to ignore him and give him one word answers. My HR person is aware of my discomfort with this guy and he's already been spoken to once about bothering me while I'm trying to work.
He's in his late fifties (I'm 24) and he gives me really slimy vibes and makes me very uncomfortable. What should I do???

I work for a team, and they are usually on the field. So the best way for me to communicate something is by text. Lately, one of them had been replied back in capital letters. If there is something that he doesn't like he sends me text like that. I had been working for them for almost 6 years, and time to time any of them start treating me very demanding. I had been very supportive of them, 'cause I need the job. But lately, I feel confused and sometimes even ignored, or just bellitled. Last week, I had to take my husband to the airport, and I was late. I was very reprimended over the phone. But they never take in consideration, that even when is my break time, I do answer his phone calls, or on weekends or late at nite. Sometimes I work overtime,without being paid for that. I though that time may could compensate for that.They are going under a lot of stress, but I don't think I have to pay a share of that, too. Is this a signal that I should start looking for another job?

Would you hire someone who is shy first, but once I've been in the office for a while, I warm up to people. Would you hire me? At first I am very self conscience of my tasks and responsiblities, I tend to tell myself that something is too hard for me when in reality it's just that I am scared of liking my job tooo much. ( if that makes any sense to you. lol) would you still hire me????
Thanks, and God Bless!

We have the experience, patience and very reliable. We have to be we are responsible for alot. We understand shuffling time to fit everything in, thats what makes us that much better than employing someone just out of school. Secondly we have loads of experience. Myself I am 39, I have experience squeezing out of every cell.
Us mothers going back to work, have computers and can take unfinished work home with us to finish when we put the kids in bed.
If I was an employer, I would hire me. Do younger people ask that to themselves honestly?

I have a boss in my office, we are the only two here and I don't feel comfortable for one thing because it's a male/female situation, but he wears his slacks so tight you can see and outline of everything you want to know nothing about. How do I tell him his pants are too tight? (Note: he is a really big hot head with a huge ego and if I hurt his ego he will through a temper. He's more moody than a woman with the worst PMS ever!)

I ordered a printer for an employee. My boss told me to get another one. I tried and it has been discontinued. My boss got real snippy and emailed me that she ordered it on-line just the other day.
