Comments:
Good agency for a while when I was new to game and willing to take
whatever was offered. Tendency to get nasty if you won't do what they
want, also they don't like you working for other agencies. Watch out
for one of the staff! Very rude & nasty, also totally inacurrate
information from her. She even ticks off the employers with her
pushiness and can mess up your situation. They don't like to give the
rate when offering a job, you have to ask and then they'll say "have
to check" or they'll state it with a question mark attached, so you
have to wonder if you're getting a decent rate without haggling over
it. They like it best when you just act like a puppy and are grateful
for anything and have no goals of your own.
