Rejected by the government, over and over

Back in October 2006, I applied for a job in the federal government on a lark. They advertise extensively in a professional publication, and after seeing the ad every month for two years, I figured I may as well apply. They turned me down, and I get rejection notices every few months, reminding me that I didn't get the job. It's kind of a downer.

I'm tempted to reapply just to see if I could get the job and get off their rejection letter mailing list.

Has anyone else had this happen ?
