Have I mentioned I hate job-hunting?

There's nothing that makes you feel quite so much like a waste of carbon as getting turned down for a library shelver position. I didn't even make the interview.

Well, damn. If only I could hand off a few of my years of retail wage slavery and professional apprenticeship; you need them more than I do right now. (Let's hope I still don't need them after my tenure review in two years. Heh.)

I know this was frustrating the last go-round and can only be more so now; I wish I could say something to make it easier! Barring that, I'll just note that I know that painful feeling of being turned down because of overqualification, and I am so, so sorry that you're having to go through that.

I don't think your department is stupid enough to let go of you.
