Subject:Christmas Surprise--Company Closed for 2 Weeks From:Karen <ekarenski-techwrl -at- yahoo -dot- com> To:techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com Date:Mon, 24 Nov 2008 22:37:07 -0800 (PST)
I started a W2 contracting job a few months ago. The agency is out of state, but the job is local. At that time, I was given a list of holidays, etc.
Now, I got a little surprise--I found out the company shuts down for 2 weeks during Christmas.I'm so frustrated since I only figured (financially) on 3 days.
I know there's not much I can do about it, but I am pretty upset with the agency for waiting so long to tell me and not revealing this upfront.
