Used to work at a place that shared a kitchen with a recruitment company and the same thing would happen. Very awkward to have to make a coffee right next to someone in floods of tears getting absolutely monstered by their manager.

Like Lord of the Flies in shiny suits.

A colleagues referred to one of their managers as the Terminator because of the warmth and charisma she displayed.

Most of my friends from university who went into recruiting burned out and quit within 6 months. The turnover (especially in temp agencies) is insane

It's a sales job and a hard one and most people are crap at it,hence the churn. I've spoken to a few in their early 20s that were very good but then they aren't your usual Java is the same as JavaScript type of people.
