Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
           Condition and Results of Operations


Results of Operations
         The Company's revenues are derived from providing staffing services to
its customers. Such services include providing commercial (office and light
industrial) workers, technical (engineering, scientific and information
technology) personnel, and industrial (skilled craft industrial plant and
facility maintenance) labor. Over 95% of revenue is billed on a direct cost plus
markup basis. Revenue increased more than 14% to $19.2 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2000 from $16.9 million for the year earlier period.
Revenue for the nine months of fiscal 2000 amounted to $58.7 million, an
increase of 23% or $10.8 million over the comparable nine month period of 1999.
Commercial staffing revenue decreased 7% to $5.8 million for the three month
period ended June 30, 2000 while increasing 17% to $21.4 million for the nine
month period ended June 30, 2000. Technical staffing revenue increased 11% to
$6.1 million in the current 2000 quarter, and rose 26% to $17.3 million as
compared to the 1999 nine month period, reflecting the May 1999 acquisition of
Ideal Technical Services (Ideal), which contributed $.5 million and $4.0 million
of such increases in the respective three and nine month periods. Industrial
Staffing revenue rose 42% to $7.3 million and 27% to $20.1 million for the 2000
three and nine month periods, respectively.

      Cost of services were 80.0% and 81.2% of revenue in the current three
month and nine month periods compared to 81.7% and 81.0% in the same prior year
periods. These expenses consist primarily of compensation to employees on
assignment to clients and related costs, including social security, unemployment
taxes, general liability and workers' compensation insurance, and other costs of
services, including a van transportation service which transports some
commercial staffing workers to job sites. Selling, general and administrative
expenses amounted to $3.3 million and $9.6 million for the three and nine month
periods ended June 30, 2000 compared to $2.6 million and $7.5 million for the
year earlier periods, and represented 17.2% and 16.4% of revenue in the
respective 2000 periods, increases over the comparable 1999 period percentages
of revenue of 15.3% and 15.6%, principally due to additional third quarter
nonrecurring employee benefits expense. Selling, general and administrative
expenses principally include staff employees' salaries and related costs,
advertising, professional fees, depreciation and amortization, provision for the
allowance for doubtful accounts, rent and other costs related to operating the
Company's branch offices.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
           Condition and Results of Operations (continued)


     Interest expense amounted to $134,000 and $426,000 for the 2000 three and
nine month periods compared to $80,000 and $226,000 for the respective prior
year periods, reflecting an increase in average borrowings to support the
Company's continuing growth, including the Ideal acquisition, as well as higher
interest rates. After giving effect to the utilization of certain tax credits,
the effective tax rates approximated 39% for the respective three and nine month
periods ending June 30, 2000, and 35% and 38% for the respective three and nine
month periods ending June 30, 1999. As a result of the above, net income for the
2000 nine month period was $621,000 or $0.17 per share, basic and diluted,
compared with net income of $891,000 or $0.24 per share, basic and diluted, for
the 1999 period; for the 2000 three month period, net income was $252,000 or
$0.07 per share, basic and diluted, compared to $281,000 or $0.08 per share,
basic and diluted.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Current assets at June 30, 2000 were $11,742,000 as compared to $12,974,000
at September 30, 1999 and current liabilities were $8,808,000 compared to
$10,753,000 as of September 30, 1999. The decrease in current assets principally
relates to a reduction in accounts receivable of $1.8 million as a result of a
significant reduction in Days Sales Outstanding as of June 30, 2000 compared to
September 30, 1999, due to increased emphasis and investment in staff on credit
and collections; offsetting this decrease was a $.5 million increase in prepaid
expense representing pre-paid insurance. The decrease in current liabilities
principally resulted from a $1.8 million decrease in notes payable, reflective
of the collection efforts noted above. Employees typically are paid on a weekly
basis. Clients generally are billed on a weekly basis. The Company has generally
utilized bank borrowings to meet its working capital needs. The Company has a
$9,000,000 bank line of credit; loans thereunder are secured principally by
receivables with interest at LIBOR plus one and one-half percent with a prime
rate less one-quarter percent option; $5,950,000 was outstanding under this line
as of June 30, 2000. The Company's capital expenditures typically are relatively
modest because it is involved in a service business. The Company believes that
internally generated funds and available borrowings will provide sufficient cash
flow to meet its requirements for the next 12 months.
