                        Comments to Financial Statements

     Earnings  used to calculate  both basic and diluted  earnings per share are
the  reported  earnings in the  Company's  consolidated  statement  of earnings.
Because of the Company's  capital  structure,  all reported  earnings pertain to
common shareholders and no other assumed  adjustments are necessary.  The number
of common shares used to calculate basic and diluted  earnings per share for the
second  quarter and six months  ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 was  determined  as
follows:

     Intersegment activity is not significant.  Therefore, revenues reported for
each operating segment are substantially all generated from external customers.

     The  Company's  total  assets  increased  approximately  $53  million  from
December 31, 1999 to June 30, 2000.  Approximately  $58 million of that increase
was in Technical  Services,  $14 million was in Corporate  and $1 million was in
Todays  Staffing.  A  decrease  of $16  million  was in  Information  Technology
Services and $4 million was in Management Recruiters.

     During the six  months  ended  June 30,  2000,  the  Company  completed  an
acquisition in which it invested $5.2 million. The acquisition was accounted for
using the purchase  method.  Assets acquired  totaled  approximately  $5 million
including $4 million of goodwill.  The  acquisition  did not have a  significant
effect on the results of  operations  for the six months and quarter  ended June
30, 2000.

     During  the  second  quarter  of 2000 the  Company  paid  $3.1  million  to
partially  liquidate its liability from a 1999 acquisition.  The Company expects
to pay the remaining  $4.3 million of the deferred  purchase price to the former
owners in September 2000.

     The financial  statements included in this report are unaudited and reflect
all  adjustments  that, in the opinion of  management,  are necessary for a fair
statement of the results for the periods presented.  All such adjustments are of
a normal  recurring  nature.  Results  for interim  periods are not  necessarily
indicative of results to be expected for the full year.

     Consolidated  revenues  for the six months and quarter  ended June 30, 2000
were 7.8% and 7.3%  higher,  respectively,  compared to the same  periods a year
ago. Operating profit for the six months and second quarter of 2000 increased by
4.7% and 6.2%, respectively,  from the comparable periods of 1999. The Company's
operating  profit margin for the six months and second  quarter in 2000 was 5.1%
and 5.2% of revenues, respectively, compared to 5.2% and 5.3% for the six months
and second quarter in 1999.

     Technical  Services' revenues for the six months and second quarter of 2000
increased  9% and  10%,  respectively,  from  last  year's  comparable  periods.
Technical  Services  operating profit for the six and three-month  periods ended
June 30, 2000  increased  4% and 13%,  respectively,  in relation to  comparable
periods in 1999.  Operating profit margins for the six months and second quarter
of 2000 were 4.5% and 4.7% of revenue,  respectively,  compared to 4.8% and 4.6%
for the six months and second quarter in 1999.

     The  segment's  telecommunications  division,  which  currently  represents
approximately 10 percent of the unit's revenues,  has experienced  strong growth
in 2000.  Telecommunications headcount increased 39 percent over the same period
a year ago while revenue increased 62 percent as a result of a shift in business
mix toward higher-value  services.  Telecommunications  division growth has been
driven in large part by a contract to provide  broadband  services  installation
for a major telecommunications customer.

     Information  Technology Services' revenues were flat for the six months and
second  quarter  of this  year  compared  to  last  year's  comparable  periods.
Operating  profit  decreased  8% and 9% during the six and three  month  periods
ended June 30, 2000 versus comparable periods in 1999.  Operating profit margins
for the six months and second quarter of 2000 were 5.9% and 5.7%,  respectively,
compared to 6.5% and 6.3% for the six months and second quarter in 1999.

     The  segment's  results  reflect  a  continuation  of  challenging   market
conditions  including  slower than expected  demand for  information  technology
staffing  services.  While the segment has been  experiencing  increasing demand
within its staffing  business for IT  professionals  with  higher-end  technical
skills, these candidates are harder and more expensive to recruit and retain. In
addition,  the  unit  is  experiencing  high  turnover  rates  relative  to  its
historical experience as its contract  professionals are recruited for permanent
positions,  increasing recruiting costs and limiting revenue growth. The segment
continued to invest in its strategy of increasing its higher-margin  outsourcing
business.

     Todays Staffing revenues for the six months and second quarter of 2000 were
6% and 2%  higher,  respectively,  compared  to the  same  periods  a year  ago.
Operating  profit  for the six and  three  month  periods  ended  June 30,  2000
increased 19% and 7%,  respectively,  in relation to comparable periods in 1999.
Operating profit margins for the six months and second quarter of 2000 were 7.0%
and 6.7%, respectively, versus 6.3% and 6.4%, respectively, for the same periods
in 1999. The segment's

slower  revenue  growth  reflects the impact of a tighter labor  market,  making
candidate  recruiting  more  difficult and  increasing  turnover.  Its operating
profit  growth  reflects  the impact both of the  segment's  strategic  focus on
smaller,  more  profitable  accounts and effective cost  management.  During the
second quarter, the number of non-national accounts increased by about 4 percent
over the second quarter of last year.

     Management  Recruiters'  revenues for the six months and second  quarter of
2000 increased 22% and 21%,  respectively,  from last year's comparable periods.
Operating  profit for the six months and quarter  ended June 30, 2000  increased
45% and 34%, respectively, over the comparable periods in 1999. Operating profit
margins  for the six  months  and  second  quarter of 2000 were 22.4% and 22.8%,
respectively, compared to 18.9% and 20.6%, respectively, for the same periods in
1999. The segment's results reflect the impact of improved operating  procedures
implemented in company offices over the past year and continuing strength in the
permanent placement market across a diverse range of customers and industries.

     During  July  2000  the  Company  completed  a  review  of the  status  and
implementation  of its  SAP/R3  system.  As a result of  significant  changes in
technology in the three years since the project was conceived,  the Company will
continue to implement  certain  aspects of the current system  version,  such as
data  warehousing,  but has  discontinued  further field  implementation  of the
current  version  of the R3 system.  Instead,  over the next 12 to 18 months the
Company  will  evaluate  and  transition  its  existing  systems to newer,  more
powerful  web-enabled  technologies to support its long-term system requirements
more efficiently and effectively.  In the interim, the Company will utilize both
the  existing  installed  elements  of the SAP/R3 and its  legacy  systems.  The
Company is also launching a formal process  standardization  program to identify
and  implement  more  efficient  methods,  processes  and  practices  related to
billing,  payroll,  benefits and  receivables  management  that will support its
future  business  and  system   requirements.   Costs  relating  to  the  system
implementation totaled approximately $0.08 and $0.03 per share in the six months
and  second  quarter  of this  year and  were  principally  responsible  for the
year-over-year increase in corporate expenses.

     During the six months and second  quarter of 2000,  the Company  incurred a
significant  increase in interest  expense in  comparison to the same periods of
1999. The increase  primarily  reflects the effects of higher interest rates and
higher  average  levels  of debt  outstanding  partially  as a result  of slower
customer payments.

     During  the  second  quarter of 2000 the  Company  improved  from the first
quarter of 2000 in managing working capital more effectively, principally due to
changes to its  receivables  management  and collection  processes.  The Company
reduced long-term debt by $20 million and reduced Days Sales Outstanding from 70
as of March 31, 2000 to 67 as of June 30,  2000.  Days Sales  Outstanding  as of
June 30, 1999 were 61.

                                    Year 2000

     The  Company's  year  2000  ("Y2K")  inventory,  assessment  and  solutions
implementations  programs  leading  up to the  year  2000  appear  to have  been
successful. The Company entered the year 2000 substantially fully Y2K compliant,
and there have been no meaningful  interruptions  of services within the Company
or with its external  constituencies.  The Company will  continue to monitor its
systems  for  potential  difficulties  as part of its normal  systems  operating
procedures.

                               Financial Condition

     The ratio of current  assets to current  liabilities  was 2.4 to 1 for both
June 30,  2000 and  December  31,  1999.  The ratio of  long-term  debt to total
capital (long-term debt plus  shareholders'  equity) was 19% as of June 30, 2000
and 18% as of December 31, 1999.

     The  Company's  long-term  debt was reduced by $20 million to $76.5 million
from March 31, 2000,  although  debt  increased by $11 million from December 31,
1999. The Company's reduction of Days Sales Outstanding is primarily responsible
for the improvement from March 31, 2000 to June 30, 2000.

     During the six  months  ended  June 30,  2000,  the  Company  completed  an
acquisition in which it invested $5.2 million. The acquisition was accounted for
using the purchase  method.  Assets acquired  totaled  approximately  $5 million
including $4 million of goodwill.  The  acquisition  did not have a  significant
effect on the results of  operations  for the six months and quarter  ended June
30, 2000.

     During  the  second  quarter  of 2000 the  Company  paid  $3.1  million  to
partially  liquidate its liability from a 1999 acquisition.  The Company expects
to pay the remaining  $4.3 million of the deferred  purchase price to the former
owners in September 2000.

     The Company believes that capital  resources  available from operations and
financing arrangements are adequate to support the Company"s businesses.

                            New Accounting Standards

     In June 1998,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  (FASB)  issued
Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.
Statement No. 133 establishes  accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments  and for hedging  activities  and is effective  for years  beginning
after June 15, 2000.  The Company will  determine the extent to which  Statement
No. 133 applies and adopt the standards established as required.  Currently, the
Company has no derivative or hedging activities.

     The  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  (SEC)  issued  Staff  Accounting
Bulletin  101-Revenue  Recognition in Financial Statements (SAB 101) in December
1999.  SAB 101 will become  effective in the fourth quarter of 2000. The Company
does not believe that SAB 101 will have a  significant  effect on its  financial
position or results of operations.

     The FASB issued  Financial  Interpretation  No.  44-Accounting  for Certain
Transactions  involving Stock Compensation (FIN 44) in March 2000. FIN 44 became
effective  July 1, 2000.  The Company  does not believe  that FIN 44 will have a
significant effect on its financial position or results of operations.

     The  Emerging  Issues Task Force  (EITF) of the FASB reached a consensus on
Issue  00-2-Accounting  for Web Site Development Costs in March 2000. The EITF's
consensus  became  effective July 1, 2000. The Company does not believe that the
EITF  consensus on Issue 00-2 will have a  significant  effect on its  financial
position or results of operations.
