So today I returned the voicemail of my contact at the temp agency who snagged me this billing job that I was furloughed from a few weeks ago. My supervisor said that he'll give an answer as to when I should expect to be brought back by ... well, last Friday.
I asked my contact about that and he said, "Oh, they're OK with everything for now. That may change in the future, but they're set for right now."
Oh, I know what he meant by that: That means that they didn't want me anymore, and instead they hired back the other temp. So that was all a lie, huh? You guys liked me, but then dumped me? Were you guys really saying, "Well, you're a temp, so we have to say we like you to your face, but deep down we think you're not as good as the other guy?"
The bad thing is is that I was kind of assuming they'd hire me back. In fact, I was kind of relying on the money. Now I have five weeks to find $2,000 to pay for the car repairs I had done over the holiday break.
For the first time in a long time, I am in serious danger of having no money. I used to fret about not having money, but that was only in the checking account. I have money in stocks and CDs. But now, because of the car and the work taking out from under me, I am, seriously, in danger of having no money.
I. Am. Screwed.
