Ugh in need to rant. Just started a new job as a temp at this big company. I actually found out that my entire department is all temps, and there are a lot of temps in other departments as well. And the guy training me, who is an amazing worker, knows how to do a lot of things despite being there under a year, is still a temp. And when he talked to HR about it, they said they would investigate and let him know in 30 days. On top of that he said that another worker that no longer works there straight up asked our supervisor if he was being hired on, and our supervisor said they were not looking to hire any temps at all. So now I’m over here with a big thumb in my big gaping asshole feeling really dumb. It almost (very much) feels so intentional to keep us all at temps so we don’t get that pay raise, or the benefits, or accumulate time off. Ugh. Sigh.
