They have all been in their 50s or older. The temps all seem really nice and eager to make a good impression. Makes a change from bored looking grumpy 20somethings who can't wait to get out of there (i have been there a million times - not having a go).

The rest of the office is pretty young, only a handful of people over 40, all in secure permanent jobs. This makes me feel very sad and quite guilty.

The recession sucks.
