In a nutshell: I've been working as a temp at Washington Mutual, dealing with mortgages and fun stuff like that. This morning, all the temps were rounded up and told that tomorrow was our last day. For most of them, this is their job, how they support themselves and their kids. And they were given all of a day and half's notice that they were

Alright, I'm jealous...I would love working with people who want to become foster parents or adoptive parents. I've been doing research on it for the past few days (more the adoptive parents/kids part) while at work. Punk.

Love,

JASON WAY!!! hiiii! this is amy hanna, i found your lj when eric friended me!

i'm sorry about the job thing, my friend danny worked there (but the night shift) and he got "laid off" as well. but, hey, at least it was the end of the summer, right? and which temp. agency did you work for? i'm just curious because i worked for one this summer too, but i wasn't lucky enough to get a steady job(i filled in for people ALL OVER town). anyways, i'm glad i have a way to keep in touch with you now, even if it is just lj...:)

Hey! How are you? Yeah, I was only looking to work one more week, so it wasn't a big deal, I just feel bad for those who were depending on them. I worked for Adecco, which supplies temps exclusively for Washington Mutual. You should look into it next summer, because most of the positions they have are fairly long term. I hope your summer has been going well. I never knew you had an lj, but it's definitely cool. I'll make sure to keep in touch. :)
