Not Permitted to Return to a Temp Job by the Agency After Unfair Criticisms

[qwaspolk69]

I am not spamming. I am talking about a real situation that really happened. I initially posted this here because I could not initially get in contact with the law office regarding the issue.

Quitting time is normally 12 Noon to begin with. You obviously do not understand the situation or how Labor Ready or the company that I was working for works.

Labor Ready did do something to me. Why are you unable to see it. Normal companies do not do this type of stuff. If there is a problem with your performance, they pull you aside, inform you of the problem and ask you to improve before they start writing you up.

All I did was the job that I was asked to do. It's that simple and that is how I am because unlike a lot of people out there I have good work ethics and do not believe in arguing with the boss. You may not like the job that you are asked to do, but if you want to keep your job, you shut your mouth and do what is expected of you to the best of your ability. You do not try to do anything that you are not qualified to do.

The only time it is appropriate to argue with an employer is if what they ask you to do is unsafe or illegal. What the company asked me to do was not unsafe or illegal. I did the job even though I did not like it and without help of any kind from anyone.

I am being attacked for doing a job that I was asked to do to the best of my ability. Maybe all of you are superman and come from the planet Krypton, but I am not. I am a normal guy from the planet earth who takes his job very seriously.

"Normal" companies do fire people quite often in situations like you are describing. I am sorry you lost your job but if you can go back to Labor Ready, go ask for another assignment.

However it seems you are somewhat naïve in situations when you fell for the Nigerian scam. Did you know this person in Nigeria? Never, ever send money to anyone who you do not know and who contacts you or says send money to any address in Nigeria or anywhere at all.

As has been stated - "best of my ability" and "properly" are two different things. I suggest if you have not stopped posting you probably are better off with whatever the lawyer told you to do.

See now this post I can get behind 10000%.

Unfortunately I doubt he's going to listen to you, either. But we can hope, right?!

Your opinions mean nothing to me. Without that job, I will die and that is not a joke. My life has already been hanging in the balance because of people's unfounded hatred of me and refusal to abide by intelligence, common sense or even the law.

I want to follow up on another post - do you have some form of mental illness? I am not joking or trying to be an ass either. Your story is all over the place and like has been said...nothing illegal was done to you. You have the opportunity for other jobs you are seemingly refusing to do any other job. First the lawyer says yes a law was violated, now he wants you to write a letter for him?

I also think you do not know what common sense means either. I think you need to just ask for another assignment and do not talk to Nigerian people anymore. Hopefully it works out for you.

[Taxing Matters]

I owe money to people like the IRS and that is no joke. They don't play games and have no sense of humor. Show the IRS that they are wrong and that your theory trumps their authority.

Owing the IRS has nothing to do with this, other than having a job might enable you to make payments on what you owe. But given your circumstances it seems you wouldn’t have enough to pay anything towards the IRS liability anyway; it seems you could barely support yourself even with that job.

If the IRS is doing something wrong or has a wrong theory to support its case that most certainly can be challenged. As a tax lawyer I do that all the time.

You obviously do not like that the client didn’t want you back. Not having the work and the pay check that goes with it will create more hardship for you. I don’t question that. But the thing is that nothing that the client did here was illegal. The client is free to tell the temp service it doesn’t want you back after you apparently left work with your assigned task unfinished. No law requires any warning first, written or otherwise. No law requires them to take into account the hardships you’ll have without the job. Like it or not, there is no legal remedy here for you over this, given the facts you have provided. File for unemployment if the temp agency can’t get you another assignment and start looking for other work. That’s were your energy and focus should be directed, not endlessy complaining about how the client company did you wrong.

No I do not have any kind of mental illness. I just have good morals and values and do not believe that people can get what they want or need without intelligence, common sense and hard work.

If you knew anything about psychology and human behavior you would know all about people's basic needs. It's not hard to figure out and common sense says that no one is going to give you money just because you think they should. If you want to get money, then you have to work hard and intelligently for it and you use the money that you make wisely. It does not take a genius to understand the law of economics and inflation.

It's simple. If you don't have the money to pay for things like gas for your car, then the gas station is not going to give it to you and if you don't pay your rent, then the landlord can and will evict you. They are in business to make money. Not to support you. That is basic common sense. Anyone that does not know that is either stupid or crazy or both.

It's all about living within your financial means. People in this world don't care about you and what you want. They care about themselves and what they want. That is human nature and it is why people do not buy things because you think that they should. They buy from you because they believe it satisfies their needs in some way. That is also why I was hired to do the job at the auto auction. It is not about what I want. It is what the boss and the customer want.

They had me out at the auto auction because they wanted and needed me to do the job out there that they needed done and it is why people hire others to help them do and conduct their business.

And this diatribe is relevant ... how?

No, don't answer that. Really.

Exactly.

The customer does NOT want you. The customer gets what he wants. Your absence.

This whole thing sounds more like what Labor Ready wants and not what the auto auction wants. Labor Ready is known to have a lot problems to both their customers and to their employee's and that is my point. I don't think that the woman at Labor Ready really tried to find out what was going on or to find out the truth or that she really even knows what she is talking about or doing and that is common with Labor Ready here and it is well known.

Before this issue came up I was dealing with a fraud case and have been relying upon the Labor Ready job as I work on trying to get other jobs. It's all about proving yourself qualified.

I have only been working for Labor Ready for the money. If I could find something better elsewhere, that paid me now then I would do that.

Labor Ready is and was always meant to be something to fill in the gaps while I look for something better. It's a lot easier said than done when they don't give you more than 1 day per week.

At this point, you're rapidly becoming little more than mild entertainment for people who are perhaps waiting for the kettle to boil.

Doesn't matter. Labor Ready is your employer. If they don't want you working there, you don't work there. It's all about what the boss wants, remember?

But really, you have no idea what the client company said to Labor Ready.
