bait job

A job that is posted by a company and/or recruiter with the intention of never filling the position. Some reasons for this include gathering resumes to "see what's out there" or to make it appear to the public that they are growing more than they actually are. More nefarious motives include harvesting people's personal data or using the job as part of a bait and switch, where people apply for one job but are instead directed towards another, usually less desirable, one during the interview process.
Fooled by another bait job. I applied for "Lead Software Developer" but was told at the interview I'd be a better fit for "Janitor."

Bait Box

Noun:
A box used in porch fishing that is placed on a porch or stoop as bait for mail thieves, aka "Porch Pirates" to be intentionally stolen. They sometimes include animal feces, or gross things to add some payback and hopefully deter the thief from stealing in the future.
Some on YouTube have gone more elaborate and built glitter flinging devices and boxes attached to shot shell primers to scare the thief.
"I buy my bait boxes at porchfishing.org. They have the freshest shit around."

"If you need a decent bait box go to porchfishing.org for all your dog shit needs."
