Jobs. Ugh.

For the last year, I've made a habit of looking at the AWP job list every two months or so, finding jobs I might want to have, pasting them into a document called "APPLY THIS WEEK!" and then never applying for any of them.

So today I found one that I really wanted! It was a roller coaster of emotions, because I know I would be good at the job, but they were asking for 2-3 years of administrative experience, which I do not have. But I have both of their preferred qualifications, an MFA and experience running a reading series. So I decided to go for it. Really. I was pumped.

But then I noticed the "job posted date" at the bottom of the ad was a couple months old. And when I clicked through to the official hiring website, the job was gone.

THAT IS ANNOYING.
