I was hired for a position where the hours were to be 9am to 5:30pm. When I initially interviewed for the position the hours were 9am to 4pm. During the interview with the company where I was being placed they stated they were the hours for the first week, then the hours would be 9am to 5:30 pm. I report to my assignment and then get told i would have to work late nights (never mentioned in the interview as a requirement) and that my hours that week would be 11am to 5 pm. a reduction of 2 and a half hours a day. I immediately notified the agenecy and they said I could not do the assignment, but that would mean that i quit and be ineligible for unemployment. Instead, I just looked for another job. I notified Kelly that I found a new job and the next day my assignment was terminated and nobody told me. I reported to the assignment because I told them I would finish the week out. So now it's "pay day" and I have no check. I call Kelly and they say oh there is no exact pay day. Payroll gets to it when they can and then you get your check. I call payroll and they say there was a check cut, but i wasn't signed up for direct deposit (which I did in person at the branch) and I would have to wait for it to come in the mail. I am so done with them and everyone else she just BE AWARE!

Did it ever occur to you that the customer did not disclose all the scheduling info when they contracted with Kelly Services? Or that the CUSTOMER changed the job duties without informing Kelly Services? Or that when they called the customer to tell them that you had found a new job, that the customer made the call to end the assignment? Are you aware that it takes up to 3 weeks for direct deposit to take affect, depending on the information you give, and that YOUR bank receives a "ping" from their bank, to verify the account, and until YOUR bank responds to that "ping", no employer is going to release funds via direct deposit to an unverified account.
As far as your rehire status, finishing out the week rarely allows enough time to replace someone. They now have a mar on their dependability with that customer, as well as other businesses that customer may have contact with. Your unemployment should not be affected unless you quit your new job without sufficient cause. The state goes to your last 3 employers for your benefits, not just your last one. Unless you listed your availability as specifically needing 40 hrs/wk, between such and such times, NO weekends, NO nights, and NO hours less than 40 hrs, you basically walked away from a bona-fide job offer, and that is why you are terminated, and why your unemployement could be affected.
Yep, I worked for a staffing company for years, can you tell? And I was always amazed at some of the [censored] reasons people would quit assignments. One lady quit because she was asked to make coffee. Un-believable.
