So I received the surprising-but-not-really-all-things-considering news at work today that I did not get the job I applied for. Oh, and it went to a candidate that had less experience than me, less (in my opinion) knowledge than me and less people skills than me. Not that you need that stuff or anything, apparently.
I am angry, but I think it's only because it's my pride that has been damaged. And I'm going to try to raise at least a little bit of hell without burning any bridges.
In the short term, I know I dodged a bullet working with an imbecilic, ignorant manager. But in the long term, I fear it may have damaged my career.
For the most part, I enjoy my job. It gives me a good work/life balance.
But just like other things in life, it leaves me question: is this as good as it gets? Is there more out there for me?
I need to win the lottery already
