<prompt> Human: Hey PF,So I currently work full time at a job Im not particularly fond of I like the job but the environment is pretty toxic for 17hr. I have an opportunity to take a temp-to-hire job similar to mine, but obviously with a new environment starting at 15hr for the temporary portion and then switching to a salary of 45-55k upon completion of probationary period. I have absolutely no experience with temp-to-hire positions. Is there a large possibility I wouldnt be switched over to the salary and let go instead? I feel as if I am completely capable of meetingexceeding their expectations, but I dont want to give up a full-time job and end up unemployed because of it. Any advice?Also, the temp job is in the same city I live. My current job is a 25 mile 70-80 minute commute each way. This is obviously a big factor to me as well.  <response>: Personally, I would definitely apply for the job. It sounds significantly better than where you currently work. Spending over 2 hours in the car every day is ridiculous. Your temp-to-hire concerns should be brought up in the interview. You can ask how successful people usually are in that position and when you could expect to be hired.
