Step one: teach the people running the job board that you don't use all caps for headers, you use regular capitalization and style to caps with CSS if that's what you want. :D

Do people in jobs like this get fired when the administration turns over?

...Now I'm imagining the accessiblity officer in the Trump administration.

I thought of you when I saw that classified :,)

And then I thought you MUST have seen it, and you have.

The A.O. in the Trump Admin would wear a suit of bespoke armor and be chained in the deepest dungeon.
