Piss me off. I saw an ad in the paper for Engineers, IT management, IT
staff, and something else that escapes my mind. Guess what? When I showed
up, in a suit & tie, they were only looking for engineers. NONE OF THEM
were looking for IT staff. NONE. Grrrrr....

Didn't even get a snack out of the time I wasted.
