I'm Pissed Off

I knew this would happen and I'm trying to keep it in perspective. Boss made the announcement about the appointment to the job that I withdraw my application from today. I've got nothing against her. I'm hoping we can work well together (after she works out that I am just as efficient as the person who was doing my role while I was on leave).

I'm shit off with my boss. If it was so important to advertise the bloody job weeks after I'd had a baby why wait 7 frigging months to interview. And if you really felt that she deserved to put a late application in (close to 3 months AFTER they closed) why not re-advertise it? I'm hoping I can put this behind me. I have no regrets about withdrawing the application - I just have this anger towards my boss. If it was anyone else he would not have accepted a late application. He's known this woman for over ten years and has always raved about her (ah.. Shelley, jealousy's a curse eh :p)

While I'm on the subject of work... if one more person says to me "oh are you filling in for Shaun while he is on leave?" I'm going to bitchslap them. No, you moron, he was filling in for me while I was on maternity leave.

So yes, its great to be back at work.
