Job prospects, which looked so fine-and-fucking-dandy just two god damn weeks ago, have dried up and withered. Well. I'm still hopeful about the job at the University but I'm 85% sure it's just going to get lost in the bureaucracy. The Student Union can't just hire students themselves thanks to our fucktarded administration's hiring freeze*, and the University Bureaucracy proper is notoriously horrible at... everything. I've been waiting for two weeks for the job listing to show up on the University website and it still is nothing. I need to bitch at people.
*FUN FACT! This hiring freeze applies to applies to students, faculty, and non-administrative staff, for the most part. Students can theoretically be hired but as noted above it is a pain in my cock. ANYWAY, this does not apply to 6 new Vice-President jobs created just this last semester (AFTER the economy went all Meepletarded, mind you), a 94 Thousand a year salaried position created for the University president's son... last month, or a new football coach to replace the one who retired... also last month. Meanwhile, Psychology, Chemistry, Math, Physics, Biology, and a couple other departments I can't come up with off the top of my head (Engineering?) are shortstaffed due to this fucking "hiring freeze."
God damn I hate this school.
