Hope you can help me please... trying to find what they mean by gelegenheidsarbeid in the following.It is in atext about an Uitzendbureau (temping agency...) and I cannot think what they mean by gelegenheidsarbeid.Would it be seasonal work? Or should Uitzenbureau be "employment agency" and gelegenheidsarbeid be "temping"... Thanks for any help, CHarlie
