Input: This is a super long story and my first post was removed for length. I’m condensing it so let me know if you need more info. 

I work for a chain company. There are two of us that, up until a month ago, were supervisors trying to get promoted to manager. I worked for one store and have been with the company less than 3 years. The other, Maria, worked at a near by store and has been with the company for almost 6. 

We interviewed for our promotions on the same day, were given offer letters at the same event, started training on the same day, and today we got certified at the same time. We are also working under the same district manager. The only difference is that Maria is going into the normal “probationary period” all new managers go through. She will become the assistant manager to someone in our district. However, my old store needs a general manager. So I am skipping the probation and being given a store of my own. Knowing company history, Maria will most likely be benched for years before she gets a store. She is not happy about it and has expressed such to our boss.

We had a district meeting scheduled for after the certification today. I got there first. I want to make it clear to you that Maria was NOT THERE during the next part. 

Maria’s new manager brought her a congratulations gift. The manager tasked with helping me get settled in my store jokingly said “I didn’t care enough to get you something.” I laughed and said, “it’s fine. Im getting a store anyways. I don’t need flowers.” Apparently that was a huge mistake. Some of the other managers told me it was an extremely bitchy thing to say. 

Here’s my thing though: A) Maria was not there and I didn’t say it to her. I wasn’t even thinking about the fact that she won’t be getting a store. B) I’ve already been running my store since the vacancy opened. For 5 months they had me do everything without offering me a pay raise, training, or title change. Yes, Maria has seniority, but I fought tooth and nail for this and I’m just glad it’s finally over. Besides, frankly, I’m damn proud of myself and the work I’ve done to get here. 

So am I the asshole? Should I have just kept my mouth shut? Or are the other managers exaggeration how bitchy I was?
