Hello ALL,
I'm new here and in need of some major help. I work for a NYC agency and its going on (2) years and I'm still a temp. When I first applied for this job, I applied through the website and was offered the job after it was turned down by another applicant because the money wasn't enough. SO okay, I was very happy at that time for the opportunity. At this time, there were (3) of us in the unit. Usually with the city, the paperwork takes a few months, so they brought me on as a temp and told me my paper work was going through the approval process at OMB. Okay, fine. A few months pass, I hear that its stuck in the hiring freeze so I'll have to wait. Okay, fine. Fast forward to June 08, they repost my position again, so now the first position, god knows what happen to it. So I apply to the repost and now they're telling me that my paper work is stuck at OMB again for whatever reason, hiring freeze. I'm like how come my paperwork always get stuck at that particular time. Anyway, I've been on a few interviews since last year but nothing never became of it, either because I wasn't really intrigued about the position or maybe it was that most of my applications were sent because of frustration and I just didn't know if I was going or coming in this place.
Alright, so its now February 09, in a few months I'll be hear 2 years. Now the lady that was here for 20+ years left this bureau and went to another agency because she just about had it with these people. From the scandals in management to the lunatics that we have to work with in other bureaus, this is just a nut house. This nut house however, has made me into a serial entrepreneur, and has allowed me to channel my frustration to create websites and I now have my my own internet marketing and web design company. I alreaedy have my comp registered but its under my mom's name. But I have the site up and I'm ready to heavy marketing.
So here I am in the present and just about ready to get out of here so I can focus my energy on my business, my 2 girls and increase my skills for my entrepreneurial dreams by going back to school and taking some business courses. I would really like to just leave this place and get unemployment benefits becaues I know they will keep stringing me along and using the hiring freeze as an excuse. I have no health benefits, no nothing. I had to skip 1 week for the last month just to get my 1 year old daughter medicaid. If i dont come in or my kids get sick I dont get paid. Its ridiculous, I could do so much with my sites and my new business ideas. I have my bf that's working and soon we'll be getting a good refund that should help sustain.
When I'm here its all chaos and frustration seeing management get over with their affairs and scandals. I've had it. I need some way to get out with a good cause for unemployment. They already know that I'm frustrated but they think because of the economy I have no where to go. They don't know about my business that I have and the web design skills that I've been advancing. They think I'm just a simple young procurement agent who has (2) girls and needs to hold on to this because I need them more than they need more. Even so, that's the least I'm thinking, I would just like to go and start working on myself, my future and making sure I'm there for my girls and not have to scramble with them everyday to come to a place that is only frustrating me and stressing me out. Please someone give me some guidance.
