Writer's Strike Prompts Actors to Turn to The Employment Line.
New York, New York. December 2007 – As the Writer’s Strike continues many NY actors are being forced to take temporary jobs to get by, according to many NY staffing agencies. “We’re getting a lot of actors calling for temp work because of the strike,” said Marty Gargle, an owner of The Employment Line, a leading staffing service in Manhattan that works with a number of actors. Ms. Gargle is a former actress who has many industry contacts. Her company actively advertises in Back Stage, an entertainment industry magazine.
“They’re taking jobs wrapping packages, addressing cards, anything,” she said. “They just want something to last them through the strike, which works well with the need for holiday help because it’s temporary by nature.”
While The Employment Line helps actors find temp work during the strike, the agency also staffs permanent and temp-to-hire positions in the New York Metro Area. “ We’re different from other agencies,” sites Ms. Gargle. “Our management team has worked in stage, films and the corporate industry. We’ve been there and back and it’s so rewarding to help people follow their dreams and/or help them embark on a new career path.”
