Oh, Consuela. No words for how wrong that is.
It's just an object. It doesn't mean what you think.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Uh, they meant to do that? When he came by your desk to tell you, he was thinking that? I seriously hope it was a fuckup they mean to address, because...that's really not likely to be the best thing for the department, never mind it's fucking you over (which is the bit I care about--they can fuck themselves--I want you to have the job you want).

My boss certainly didn't. The hiring manager might not have understood that they couldn't reach me if they went that route. And the folks in HR are completely incompetent, so who knows what they thought?
Now that it's been posted, I don't think they can pull it back and repost right away. Maybe they can, I don't know.
I feel like walking out and just, I don't know. Going away for a week. But that would be juvenile, so I will stay and do my work, and silently scream FUCK YOU at my employers.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You certainly look like a federal employee -- I mean, you're there every day! ARGH.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Good for you acting like the professional you are, but I would support your being juvenile. Gah. I hope it's fixable and will be fixed.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
WHAT.
Consuela, I am agog. This seems ridiculously incompetent, even for them, to the point of deliberately fucking you over.

Sure feels that way. I wonder if My Nemesis has any friends in the HR department...

Okay, my boss just came by, HR claims it was posted as Open as well, but for some reason it didn't go through. Nobody seems to know what's going on.
