In November of 2000 I worked at your company as a temp from Norrell. I was on the front desk for two weeeks. I would have loved to work for your company, but was offered two dollars less and hour than I was making working there temp. But the people I met were so caring and helpful. I felt the really cared for the plight of many of the poeple seeking services. Everyone was so kind and helpful. Thanks for caring.
