Comments:
During my time with ASA Personnel, I felt that they NEVER (and I try not to use this word) were interested in your well-being. My example is that one of my supervisors at the company where I was placed sent me an email stating that I took too long a lunch. I didn't respond angrily, but stated that I was only 5 minutes late; my mistake was responding via email and one knows it is difficult for tone to be read in an email. Well, it took all of 30 seconds after I sent my response to him for me to get a phone call from Debbie Griffiths(?) from ASA; she pretty much ripped me a new one, stating that I shouldn't talk back to my supervisors. Not once did she allow me to tell her that I meant nothing in my response, just simply stated the facts. That is just one example of how much they don't care about their temps; I don't recommend ASA Personnel to anyone.
