I didn't mind it for a while but a handful of bad apples ruined it for me to the point I wouldn't even talk to customers walking through the building. I'd just direct them to the poor service writer.

Bad apples make the best cider.

I find it best to communicate as little as possible with anyone, customers and coworkers alike.

I just wish they wouldn't scream so much when you try to squeeze the juice out of them

Speaking of that.

TIL a temp who quit last week claimed I treated him unfairly and poorly and he reported it to the temp agency.

Of course this is a lie so I called the temp agency to talk to them about it. He never talked to them about anything. Then I text him that they would be reaching out to him to talk to him about it which lead to another full meltdown over text. I was just trying to get my folding rulers back that he was issued and probably accidentally had on him on his way out. Those things are expensive and terminally on back order from the one company I have found that makes them.

for every temp worker, there's a reason they don't have a full time position...

Some yes, some no. This kid was 20 and applying through a temp agency is easy. You submit a resume and they match you to labor requests. Now when they are 54 and looking for a job through temp agency.........
