Guilty/Alopecia Not Involved
I'm not a bad person but I feel guilty. I have a very good friend that received a promotion and I'm jealous. I have been in the government agency for 25 years she has been there 5 years. I have been her mentor for the entire 5 year period and I feel just a bit jealous that she got a promotion to a job that I have wanted for years. I feel like such a terrible person because I am both proud and jealous. She is a wonderful girl and I wanted her to get a promotion and I'm completly shocked that I feel this way. I have encouraged her and given her advice and she is more than qualified for the job. I just wanted to let that out. Please tell me i'm not a horrible individual.

You are not a horrible person it is understandable you have given a good portion of your life to your job ( 25 yrs wow) and someone who has not been there for long gets it, even if they are nice and qualified still feels like a stab in the gut. i so get it :o)

Make sure your next resume for your file (update the one at your present company?) lists all your accomplishments since you first sent a resume to that company, INCLUDING training a person who landed Position X (no names mentioned, calm and factual). Maybe your personnel manager will take a new look at you?

Thank you guys for making me feel better. The good thing is she will be moving to a new office so she won't be my supervisor lol

On July 23, 2010 I will celebrate 20yrs. on my current job and 24yrs. in the TV Broadcast field and I never got a merit raise or a promotion. I'm told on many occasions that I am an excellent worker and a credit to my company, however I feel in some way in many situations I've been looked over time after time and may have been a victim of AU discrimination. But I cant prove it...

Thank you Sam Sam my friend has started her new job and we still talk everyday. And before she left we talked about my feelings and she completely understood. I guess that's why we are friends.
