Quick update on my wife and the new job.
Well, (not to jinx her) she seems to be doing very well. She is catching on VERY quickly. They are starting to teach her things that they had thought they hold off on teaching her until next week.
So my wife asked the first day sitting and talking to the supervisor she asked if she was filling in for someone until they come back.
The supervisor was completely floored. He thought she was hired and that was it. So he said he'd asked his supervisor about it. The next day when she came in he assured her that they could extend her time with them.
Wife is taking it as a good sign. Supervisor also explained that the Company uses staffing companies a lot but they have switch hires from staffing payroll to the company staffing.
So my wife is really enjoying herself learning a lot and is hoping it will lead to a permit position with the company. Because she wants vacation time and all that.
From what she is gathering one person held her position before she got it. The company must have done a direct hire and that person seemed to have messed everything up so badly they had issues digging out of the jam.
My wife is getting the idea that they said 5-9 months to make sure that issue doesn't arise. It turns out the info my wife is handling can effect productivity for the company so that job isn't done well and it puts co workers and other in a stand still and back up.
So any suggestions or advise to get the company to like her so they keep her and switch her onto their payroll ( so she can get the paid holidays and build up vacation and personal time. Yeah, it may sound selfish of my wife but if the company's staff is paid when they shut down for a holiday and because she is with a staffing company my wife doesn't she feels left out.)
