Make your own hours. Paid expenses included milage and your hourly wage while driving to an from locations. Great outdoor job.

Ever changing rules. Daily meetings with supervisor on days you work. Weather can be a challenge on rainy days. Temp job wont last forever.

Pros

Great pay, but terrible experience. Everything changes, every day. Nearly unmanageable to keep up with. Most employees are also very very dumb.

Cons

I have never had to complete more paperwork, and useless paperwork at that, in my entire life....combined.

Pros

There is only one positive reason to work for this bureau and that is very flexable hours. The crew leader exsects at least 18 hours a week and max of 40.

Cons

I have a solid background in management, management training, process implementation and operational audits. Having said that I feel fully qualified in relaying my findings. Each and every manager that I interacted with, including the Local Census Office Manager had serious management issues. These issues start with lack of leadership qualities, organizational and many others. This may very well be confined to this LCO, but my gut tells me that it is not the case.
