    obviously the temp agency takes their cut until the contract has met its end.

    I've done it during the bad winters. Usually whey or some other dairy product going to one of the million cheese/yogurt outfits in state.

    Yucky :(

    Was that for a CDL position? Or one of those package delivery deals? Either way it's disgraceful.

    Probably package truck, but you're right: those drivers work their ##### off, and should be paid way better than that.
