Coworkers are a great group of people to work with.

Budget conflicts made it so they sent a lot of contractors packing. I was supposed to be one of them.

Then a week later I was magically reinstated.

I would think they would give their own people more of a discount on services, but I get a higher discount from my previous employer on my cell bill than they offer full-time employees. It doesn't apply to me since I'm a contractor, but I just thought it was sad they don't have better perks for their employees.

Loosen the reins a bit. Make this place a better company to work for by taking care of your employees. I believe they didn't even give the day after Christmas off last year as a paid holiday.
