[quote=Anonymous]This happened to me last year at 56 when I was passed over for a promotion for an outside hire who is clearly less qualified. It was a gut punch and I felt a lot of feelings for the first six months or so. I still do on occasion, but mostly now I'm just resigned to it. Like you OP, I don't see an option for jumping ship into something better. I deserved the promotion and would have rocked that role, but I love many aspects of my job and I also can see the light at the end of the tunnel in terms of retirement. Life is not a race, and it's often too short, so I'm trying to focus on the things that make me happy instead of the anger and betrayal about where my career is likely to end. Good luck OP and just know that you're not alone in dealing with something like this![/quote]
