Yeah, I just.
I feel like I should just walk out the door.
I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
According to USAjobs, I didn't make the short list for the job I've been doing for the last 4.5 years.
What. In. The. Fucking. FUCK.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I feel like I should just walk out the door.
Can you? Because I would sorely be tempted too. That's horrible. The fucking short list?

People laughed when I warned them this might happen, but all it took was to have a couple of veterans who made the minimal requirements to apply, and even though I'm 5x more qualified for the position, it wouldn't count as much as the veterans' preference.
I sent a frantic email off to the Big Boss and the HR person. Guess we'll see what happens.

Can you check that this is not a posting or data entry error?

All of this shit is managed in Washington, and I have no direct contact with those people. And the HR person is on leave today.
Hopefully the Big Boss will follow up.
I suppose they could keep me on in contract status, but that would suck--the benefits are lousy, and being a contractor actually interferes with my ability to get shit done. I can't sign reports, I can't manage projects, and so forth.
