I've been working as a temp at a forensic accounting firm for a little over 4 months now. Today, we got some sad news. One of the accountants is leaving in about two weeks, for greener, governmental pastures.
What that means is there is now an opening for a new hire. And that new hire is ME! How exciting! I don't have to be a temp anymore, I will get my own laptop, and I will get paid a whole bunch more. But the most important thing is the benefits for my family, and the stability of not having to wonder if today is the last day of work every day.
Not to mention being able to say "I work at ____" without having to add that I'm "just a temp."

Yes, raise, and I had NO benefits, so now I get crummy benefits! Oh well, but I love this company. They're so nice at our office!
