Once you have had a successful job interview with a university (or other state agency) and all of your references have been contacted, if you don't get a response about the job, the usual protocol is to phone and find out what's going on. When you hear "The position will remain open until it is filled," it means that there is a hiring freeze that no one is talking about.
"You gave a wonderful interview, and we could really see you teaching with us here at (insert university name here). Though you and the other professor were in fact short-listed for the only two positions you both interviewed for (meaning, one position was going to you and the other, to her), 'the position will remain open until it is filled.'" Translation: "We don't have any money or budget to hire ANYONE but we must keep up the pretense that there is work available, or else our potential student population will decrease as a result of a lack-of-confidence in our ability to attack quality instructors. In fact, our mandate is to weed-out tenure-track professors and replace their $100,000 positions with 3 Master's-level students who we plan to pay less than $33,000 to, each. But please keep calling so we can tell you that the position will remain open until it is filled. Have a nice day."

Get the Fucking the duck until exploded mug.The left or establishment has created a new class of people, the sick.
The sick have less rights than the healthy.
They can be forcibly quarantined and treated.
And assuming everyone is sick until proven healthy, is every bit as insane as assuming everyone is guilty until proven innocent.
The potentially sick can be forcibly tested (and vaccinated).
And how they define the sick is absurd, since this virus, like most viruses, is ubiquitous and has little or nothing to do with health.
They've assumed this virus is lethal until proven nonlethal.
They refuse to examine the data proving it nonlethal.
This is not democracy, our fundamental rights and freedoms have been suspended, this is totalitarianism and we must resist.

Get the birds of feathers flock together until the cat comes mug.You haven't scored until the knickers are off. Beware, Young Horndogs. Once in a while a girl will invite you up 'for a coffee' and you think you are in. Who knows why, there could be a hundred different reasons why, but she doesn't want you to stay the night. Defeat has snatched Vitory from your jaws. It happens, albeit rarely. Repent, reflect, get over it. If you call her again is up to you...
What the fuck. I met this chick on Saturday night and we got a taxi back to her place. After about a half an hour she said she was going to bed and that I should order a taxi home. I was gobsmacked. Just goes to show you: "you haven't scored until the knickers are off".
