call me jaded and suspicious

My husband is taking this week off to spend some time with the baby and get a few VITAL chores done around the house.

His department at work is in the middle of a huge clusterfuck of a reorg. He's supposed to be up for a management position.

So while he's out on vacation, an email goes out saying that anyone interested in applying for a management position should apply for it, officially by THIS FRIDAY.

What the fuck? I'd like to think it was a coincidence, but his department is too small and he's rubbed the VP the wrong way by refusing to make a last minute trip to Texas with literally one day's notice.

a) he'd already made a trip to Texas two weeks before in which he WOWED the local office and took care of what he was there to do

b) I was going out of town and he needed to be home to take care of Owen.

Besides--ONE DAY'S NOTICE IS BULLSHIT.

If this guy's trying to fuck him out of a position, I'll be pissed.
