Saying you're a quick learner (employee, work, company, temp)

I believe I can pick up on things fast. But, the last time I worked for a an employer, through a temp agency, I believe they expected more. They had me work with another employee who has been there for atleast 5 months and knew what they were doing. I didn't ask many questions either. It was almost like they expected me to beat or keep up with this person three days later. Now I feel like I was in a race. It was a data entry position and I expected the other employee to enter more data than me. I kept going back for more work, they already got to it first. I was only there a week and they let me go. The company is NCO and they are spread out in the U.S. and all over the world, they are always in need of collection agents. Don't get screwed by them. They must be in need because they are always letting so many people go.

NCO is the most worthless company in the world. I keep getting calls from them for a couple who had this phone number over five years ago! And they apparently share this information with everyone. I am afraid to answer my own phone, and I don't owe them anything. I told them 5 years ago that they no longer had this number, then they would call a bit later and I would ask, "What did I tell you last time?" They would tell me they had no record of ever having called.

So, be thankful they let you go. You are no longer a part of an organization that is more detestable than... Well, almost everyone except the democrat party.
