Worked hard. Took on extra projects, went above and beyond, trained new employees. Then I was passed over for a promotion. The 19 year old with 0 experience beat me out. I have 10 years management experience and 30 years customer service and 2x experience in that actual department. Perfect attendance, always on time, never been written up.
It’s all a lie, don’t believe the hype
Yup, had that happen almost exactly the same one time. Also got turned down for career development training without a reason … eventually found out from another department’s manager it was because I’m a woman.
My job title had simply been “technician”, after I left the guy who I’d trained and took on my responsibilities got the job title of “lead engineer” :-/
