How far would you go to get your dream job?

In The Temp, Warren (Marek Larwood) is sent to a variety of temp jobs by his recruitment officer Aimee (Vicki Pepperdine) on the promise that if he does a good job, it might become permanent. And each time, the job turns out to be more dangerous and ludicrous than advertised. Open-minded to the point of mindless, Warren never seems to notice that the job is very different to the job description - he just wants to do a good job, and get made permanent.

Pleasantly surprised by this audio book, it was funny in a really cleaver way, listened to it with my teenager & he really enjoyed it too ... I hope there’s a series 2 coming soon. Well done Steve Nelson & the rest of the performers 👍🏼👍🏼

This series is really funny 😁

the whole series is absolutely hysterical, the characters are well played and some pretty good lines to boot. I sat here in the beach giggle to myself and quite often laughing out loud, which probably made me look like a simpleton suffering from sun stroke.

Wasn't Sure at First, but...

Really enjoyed the comedy of this and found myself giggling at the silly, but clever puns all throughout. The voice acting was next level. Wish there were more series like this.

My kind of humour!
