Temp Agencies...uhhh

Yesterday I was contacted by a temp agency because of my resume on monster.com. This lady was a ditz on the phone and in person. For the life of me I could NOT get any information out of this lady on the phone yesterday other than the job she was contacting me about was for a non-profit organization...that's it. It was like pulling teeth. So I set up a time to meet with her today and when I got there she didn't seem that prepared. She told me a little bit more about the job only after I told her "I have no idea about the job, you didn't tell me ANYTHING about it over the phone yesterday!" Her reply, "oh (haha) sorry." Errr. That was fine but she still didn't tell me much about it and it left me feeling very dissatisfied and not really wanting to pursue this accounting job. She just didn't make it sound like something I would want. I told her I would interview so we will see what happens. Also, I had to drive 80 miles round trip just to find out nothing! All in all after all of this ranting...I am not impressed with temp agencies, well at least this particular women at this particular one!

I had a dream last night they offered you the job without even interviewing you.
