I have been doing temp jobs for three years now and I can't continue to do so. I don't get any vacation, sick or personal time. I'm not able to get any over time. I'm making less than I was when I work for a company full time. I called to request a raise today since I been with this company for 1 year and I was told they don't have it In their budget. They will have to contact the company I'm working at to see if they can free up some money on there end. Which this company is tight with a dollar so I don't see that going well. It's flexible with allowing me to leave and pick up my child but I don't think I can afford to stay. I have benefits with my husband plan but what if they cut that out next year like most companies are doing. My rent goes up yearly and it's was being to be a struggle to main everything. I have made major changes such as finding a free before and after school program. I have switch telephone providers. I have not turned on my ac but once so far. I paid off my car. I would like to move to a cheaper place but it's not looking good as of now. I know I have to find something else want to get some positive feedback or other people thoughts.

What field are you in? What are job prospects in this field?Brian -
Hello BJ,
I'm in the information technology. I do helpdesk work. I have a degree in Networking but no hands on experience. Most helpdesk job move overseas. But there are some companies that still have positions. I'm ready to branch out but they keep trying to keep me in a box.Comment

You have skills though. If your rent is getting high yearly then try some remedies like part time jobs on the internet. Your work hours will definitely be tough but I hope you will get positive response to your company.Comment

the best time to look
The best time to look for a new job is whilst you are currently working. Then you still have an income whilst you are looking and you can afford to pick and chooseComment
