I've had that happen too. When I first started out, entry level girl been there about three years. Was again routinely told I was the best worker blah blah blah. I applied for the management training program and was told they only wanted people who wanted to be managers. WTF? I wouldn't have applied if I didn't want it. They gave the spot to a senator's son who had been with the company less than a year and who I was training.

Then I got moved to a headquarters because i had a certian "look". (Read: size 4 with DD boobs at that time) and the wanted me there. Once there i spent more time fetching coffee and snacks for the officers than doing my own job. I quit. I have 2 masters degrees. I'm not your toy.
