There is your answer!

I see. Has your company ever made it public how much they value diversity? If so, I would start looking for another job. Your other option is to stay and be the token honkey who gets passed over for jobs.

Why not ask the manager why the other person was chosen over you? I know how it feels not to be promoted, I have been waiting 6 months.

I think I'll give myself a promotion tomorrow.



I can do that, I'm white.

Just tell them what my friend that this happened to did. Tell them that you don't feel like you are qualified to train him in the position that he is more qualified for than you.

Might as well tell him to walk right up to his boss and just blatantly ask them him if he is racists or prejudice.

This company, or the upper management in this company, is blinded by "equal opportunity" to the point where they have promoted someone unqualified to do the job. Then furthermore they expect someone, which is also a person that also applied for said position and was not selected, to train the unqualified person that did get the promotion. Makes perfect sense in today's corporate America.

[ceyko]

It does not hurt to ask, with the motive of "finding out how to improve myself for future promotions that I desire"...type of thing. You can read between the lines and figure shit out quick enough.

Pull the racist card too if that fails.

You've worked there nine years, and you're still front end manager? I'm sure they've gone through atleast a few assistant managers! Maybe you should try something else. My first job was sacking groceries, stocked groceries shortly after, then assistant grocery manager before I was 18. Truth is, if you're at one position that long, you're probably stuck.

What's the pay difference?

$400 a week more. So i would've made$ 1150 a week
i hate my life

[68chevy2]

$400 a week more. So i would've made$ 1150 a week
i hate my life

$1,150 - $400 = $750
$750 x 52 weeks = $39,000
8 years invested to make < $40,000/yr

Have you thought about a different job field? I don't mean to criticize.
