Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got hired and now I have to work. FML
Today, I discovered that I needed to reapply for my job in order to have a chance at keeping it. The applications closed yesterday. FML
Today, after I applied for an IT position at work, and a coworker I’ve worked with for 3 years, who said she had no intention on applying, wished me luck and told me, "I hope you get it!" it's now a week later and it turns out she applied the next day, got the offer and accepted. I had to find out a week later from a different coworker. FML
Today, while waiting for an interview at the career that I've been spending months tailoring my résumé for, I was thrown up on by my only competitor. Guess who got the job. FML
Today, I interviewed potential employees for a job position that I was supposed to get promoted to. FML
Today, I e-mailed an employer to ask about a job I had applied for earlier. The employer in question was on vacation. The person who replied had the position which I had applied for mentioned in their signature. FML
Today, I applied for a new job as a maintenance technician. About 10 minutes after submitting my resume, I received a rejection letter. My girlfriend is their HR person. FML
Today, I went to start my new job, only to find out that the guy who hired me had no permission to do so. I had to fill out another application, and complete another interview and I still might not get the damn job. FML
Today, my job application for McDonald's was rejected. This is the second time. FML
Today, I got a call from the only company that asked me to come in for an interview of the many applications I submitted. I answered it even though I was at my current job. My boss heard and chewed me out. The call was to cancel the interview since the position was filled. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I assume she means her job was posted (as in she's being replaced)?

his company was proly taken over and OP must apply for his own job or be replaced by someone from the new company. remember the movie "Office Space"?

Dude, that's so weird- a lady I work with just did this last week! The job was posted anonymously and she didn't realize it was our company! Ahahahaha it happens.......

I'm so confused! Haven't they technically already hired you if you're working there?...

maybe she was applying for a higher rank in the job or something? ex she's a cashier, but applies to be a cook or something (think mcdonalds, wendys, etc)

He applied for a job, then relized it was the job he allready had. (there replacing him, and he hadn't known he was going to be fired yet) Well at least that's what I can make out of it.

I believe the Office Space scenario is closest. My interpretation was that he had to apply for his current job because the company is changing somehow: takeover, department reoeganization, etc. It's getting common for companies to have current employees to prove they are still the best person for the job.

or maybe it's the same job with less pay

why would he want the same job for less pay?

I can understand. Maybe Op's situation is the same as mine. I applied at a pharmacy & my friend happened to work there & they were incredibly short staffed so she asked me to work for them for a couple days, then I'd have an interview and possibly get hired.

I think I get it. OP's working at his job and reapplied when he saw that his job spot was open, meaning that he was most likely going to be fired soon thus opening said job spot.
