They are letting lots (and when I say lots, I mean tons) of people go from the Red Cross Assignment in Bakersfield, CA (and because it's a temp job, they don't have to tell you why even if you think you were qualified to have the job). They let me go on and did not pay me that day. They said I could pick it up from the office on the following friday. I go the office on that day, Guess what, no check. So the woman there told me that they sent all the red cross checks to the ACS facility and to go there. So I drive ALL the way across town (keep in mind gas prices are high right now) with one of my children during RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. I get to ACIS. I wait in line with all the other people who are still employed for them. Several minutes later, I'm told there is no check there for me, and to "Go the the round table in another area". So I do that. On my time sheet they had written "Will pick up at office on Friday." So they start to say "Go do that." So I inform them that I already went there. A different woman tells me to call the office on the upcoming Monday. I do. I'm on hold with different people (kept getting transferred) for over 15 minutes. Finally they told me it had been sent to me. I ask From where? The woman says "I don't know." and acted like she was going to get off the phone. So I say, Was it mailed from California? I'm put on hold again. She comes back and tells me it was mailed from TEXAS!! and to "give it a few days". Few days pass, NEVER received my check. Talked to the labor board. Apparently, they are doing this to a LOT OF PEOPLE!!! (that's what they told me). They are ripping off a lot of people. Even if I get paid eventually, it doesn't matter, I worked the hours, I needed the money. I had to go through the pain of gettiing fired when I felt I was doing a good job (yes it struck me hard), so now they are making it even worse by not paying me and others. If you're thinking about this agency, go to another one.
