Comments: This is a small mom and pop temp agency which does not advertise for temps. Steve, Laura, and Sonny run the show and each is very friendly and consciencious of temp and client. They sometimes called me to remind me to send in my timesheet if I forgot because they wanted to make sure I got paid on time. Although I had several good assignments lasting a month or more, because they are small there are occasional dryspells without work. I stuck with them anyway.
