That is one horrible recruiter. it sounds as if you could do better on your own. Do you really need to use a recruiter or is one needed for the type of position you are going after? You could try and change recruiting companies to see if that makes any difference or just go at it yourself.
As for me I suppose I should be happy I get a paycheck every 2 weeks and I am, but as a Hair Stylist we do much more then just cutting, washing, styling, and coloring hair. With also having to be on my feet practically all the working day I also have to withstand the bitching from the clients that I am styling the hair. Grant it some are rather humorous, but some get rather personal with their stories and they also get rather worked up when telling them. It makes for a very eventful workday each day.
