company lied on a job posting and I am furious

I have been looking for more stable work than my current contract and I came across a graphic design position with more pay, benefits and overall pretty promising. I went to the interview to find out it was a receptionist position?

The boss litterally gave an excuse that “you know there aren't that many actual art jobs out there” I have been an art director and lead illustrator at my company for three years, I have a bachelor's degree. No shade to receptionists but I did not go through four years of school, build a portfolio, have 4 years for actual job experience to have to hand my CV to people who apparently deliberately lie on job postings just to catch somebody in a tough time. Fuck…

Fuck you, if you want somebody to answer phones for you, don't advertise it as a completely different job
