Government jobs CRAZY

Yeah, I'm venting once more, but here is my gripe:

If you do not check every box with the governments web page, willing to work all aspects; full-time part time tempoary and the rest, the computer will automaticly reject your applications.


When you apply for a full time-job, and they call and offer tempoary or part time job, although it was listed as full time, you bring up the fact you applied for full time, you are told "Well you put that you are willing to work part time!" And if you turn down the job you go to the bottom of ALL CANDIATE listings. I think that is a very unfair thing to do.


And dependents are being chosen over ALL PERSONS in USAREUR, even veterans with preferance. I applied for truck driver for postal work here, and they gave the job to a 19 year old dependent with a plain Class 3 drivers lisc.(I know her, good girl, but not the point). The job description called for a Class 2 (which I have), but she was listed as "Better Qualified" and I think this is dirty poo..................

And the fact the applications are picked by a computer first, before human eyes see the resume. I applied for a materials shipper job, and I had in my resume, that I had experance with International Export of hazerdous materals, they wanted (I found out after the selection process) the wording, 'shipping of haz-mat on a world wide basis'...........WHAT IS THE DANGED-DIDDLY-ANG difference?


Thanks for letting me vent.............once more..................and let me know if I am just being a crybaby................JON
