"The temps, in their own words, let us know what it is all about. Let's not kid ourselves. Temp is a euphemism for day laborer. George and Lennie are no longer merely ranch hands. They work in law firms, banks, insurance companies and in your own workplace."
--Studs Terkel
 
"Anger, loneliness, fear, and occasionally some satisfaction -- these are some of the feelings temporary workers face, and they emerge in the Best of Temp Slave, a collection of essays recently put out by Garrett County Press."
--Stephen Franklin, Chicago Tribune
 
"...A disturbing, eye-opening and possibly invaluable social document." 
--Arthur Salm, San Diego Union-Tribune
 
"Read a few of these stories, then try imagining what the writers have to look forward to when they hit retirement age. Scary stuff." 
--Dave Becker, Wisconsin State Journal
 
"By turning a much-needed light on the hypocrisy and inhumanity which constitute the Big Lie of this post-industrial, "service" economy, Jeff Kelly has made Temp Slave! one of the most popular zines in the country."
--Tim Hall, The New York Hangover
 
"Temp Slave pulls the coffee stained rug out from under the corporate spin boys and their schemes for you and I." 
--Lumpen
 
"I raced through Best of Temp Slave! like Evelyn Wood on amphetamines. Not only is it a valuable document and an essential oral history and all that, it's a hell of a lot of fun to read."
--Jason Toon, Maximum Rock'n'Roll
 
"Temp Slave! is a biting collection of articles, essays, and cartoons - all by temps who've lived what they write about."
--Fast Company
 
"Near-postal temps will love TS, saluting it as the bible on which they balance their coffee mugs. Everyone else will love the pretty pictures."
