You may have heard I just turned 28. That's right, I'm a 28 year old temp. No holiday pay, no sick pay, no Christmas bonus. I can't think of a single perk that comes with this job.
Now I'm nearly 30, I'm kinda starting to panic. I've heard that temp agencies charge companies an extortionate fee to "buy" a temp off them, but I'm sure there's a loophole somewhere.
Has anybody made this cross-over successfully?

I have temped several times over the years, some through an agency, and some on my own. The truth is, if you are really good, it's hard not to become employed full-time. Most companies use temps partly because it's a way to try people out.
The best way to get an offer for permanent employment is to be a great employee. Show up early, work extra hard, and be kind to everyone. It'll happen.
