"Please call this number - it's important"

When I get a text like that, it's either "You have been given more shifts", or "Sorry, nothing for you there anymore. You are going to a new place."

I have been at my current temp job for around a month and a half, and I have grown to love the job a lot. It wasn't like that a few weeks ago. Back then, I just wanted to leave as quickly as possible, but something changed. It might be because of that other guy, who I have been temp working with. He wasn't given an extension, so he's now gone from there. It makes it much more fun to be there. I know it's an awful thing to say, but it's the truth.

Anyway, back to the text!

I asked my team leader if I was allowed to go and make a phone call, to which he said "It it's important, then yes". So I finished what I was doing and headed out to make the call. When the phone was picked up, the lady at the other end said "I don't know why you had to call. I can check up on it. Are you available within the next ten minutes?"

I told her, that I was on a break at 3 pm, and that they could call back then. I finished the call, and I was about to head into the production area, when my phone rang. It was the agency, so I immediately picked up.

"Hello, again. You have been extended until the 20th of December, so you are just going to continue doing what you are doing now".

Quite possibly the best call I could have gotten! After I hung up, I immediately went out to the Polish girl, A, and told her, that I was extended until the end of December. She was very happy for me, which in turn made me happy as well. For the rest of the day, everything flew out.

Regarding A and me, we talk extremely well. We even banter every now and again. It's nice to have a friend to have some fun convos with. She's always coming down to me, going "Why aren't you working? Come on, work!", to which I say "Yes, boss. I will do better". It's all in a fun way, which is great.

Now I can enjoy the rest of the week, before I can sleep in during the weekend. I look forward to that!
