Dezire Manpower Services

Our office is on the 3rd floor of the building at No. 54/25, right on 8th E Main. It's a climb up the stairs every morning, which is a bit of a workout. We stay busy with the phones and people walking in looking for jobs. It gets pretty loud in here when all three of us are talking at once. There are papers everywhere because we still write things down in ledgers. We spend most of our time talking to people who want to work. Some are young kids looking for their first thing and others have been around a while. Near Ja, the traffic is usually backed up, so we hear the horns all day. We’ve got a couple of old desks and chairs that have seen better days. We don't have a big corporate setup. It's just a small space where we try to match folks with what they can do. Sometimes it’s hard to find the right person for a specific spot. We drink a lot of coffee to stay awake during the slow afternoons. Most people find us through word of mouth. We don't do much advertising. The windows stay open when it’s not raining too hard. You can see the street from up here. We just handle the paperwork and the interviews. It’s a lot of talking and listening to stories from everyone who comes through that door.
