text: is it unethical as a temp employee to use company supplies to find a full time job?   that would be just great, let the company you are working for (temp) pay you for using their supplies to find another employer!  and if you did the job that you were hired for (temp), i suppose that you would want to be paid for doing that, too??  i am sure that if you owned a business, and your temp employees used your supplies (and time) to look for another job, that you would probably say to them " sure, it is ok for you to steal my supplies and the company work time i am paying you for".
