Dear Tron,

When you took the temp position, part of what you agreed to was being underpaid and potentially overworked for the priviledge of not going through a rigorous interview process and the joy of starting work right about now. Plus, when I was a temp, I think it was against the terms of my contract to get paid overtime.

That having been said, and understanding that if you're going to leave to go back to school or whatever you have a lot less leverage, feel free to schedule a sit down with your boss or manager and say "I really enjoy working here, but I don't think that the pay I'm getting is comensurate with the work I'm doing, and I'm considering leaving. But if you'd consider turning this into a permanent position..."

Then they have to contact your agency cause that's part of the contract they signed.
