4. I got the best job of my working career through temping,
a union job with the Teamsters at a distribution warehouse. The Union allowed the company to hire temps when very busy, but if the temps were there too long there was the strong suggestion that maybe it was time to hire another full time employee.

My experience with temping has been positive and has given me the opportunity to be hired full time. Like dating before marriage, it gives both sides a chance to know the other before making a more long term commitment. I will likely be temping again next month.
