As a former administrative assistant and on-again-off-again temp worker, I’ve been exposed to an array of things that have mellowed my views about the general workplace. I used to think, “If I find that one job that I love, I won’t have to worry about looking for a career ever again.”
Gosh, how naive was I?
My career journey has looked like various amusement park attractions-some jobs were like the lazy, swishy tea cup rides

Wow. What was wrong with my original title - "What I've Learned from Temp Work" ?

You're right, that would be a much better title! I read your post and thought, "Wow, this must be one of those cases in which the editors changed the title." It really doesn't reflect your message at all, which has got to be frustrating for you.

Thanks KateNonymous, at least someone feels my pain :-P
