This happens in real life many times. This happened with me too. I will be really irritated and depressed to go through such a situation. The pain will be more when you deserve a promotion and somebody else get it through back doors. We can't do anything about it, but face the situation thinking that it is bad luck and failures are stepping stone to success.
When this situation happened to me, I mean when I desrved a promotion, but the mangement has taken decision to promote my colleague. I was very upset, but I went and congratulated the person on his promotion even though my heart was very angry and upset. When I left the company, I told the CEO about the situation and asked him to take necessary action so that this should not happen to anybody else in the company.

Daliaji how can u congratulate someone with an angry heart? This is akin to cursing than blessing. Anyway congratulations for not getting promoted. Promotions need not necessarily be on seniority, it can be merit based. Who knows ur CEO may have been informed about ur misuing office computer for mylotting and hence this disciplinary action. Dont do this in ur new office hehehehe

I'd wish the person luck on his success and secretly wish "only if I could be like him/her" and start working hard.

Well, hard work pays off for me at least. So I answered it from personal experience... Everyone of us goes through your situation and yes we should work hard using our brains. Working brainlessly will get you nowhere.

I just deal with it, and figure that my turn will come. We can't be the luckiest person in the world every day, and sometimes we need to make our own luck. It's that person's turn today, and it may be my turn tomorrow, next week, or maybe even next year. Either way, my time will come.

This Is What We Say As 'Kalachakra', Which Means Cycle Of Life .. Everybody Have their Good And Bad Times ..As You Said You Can't be The Luckiest Person Everyday .. You Have to wait for Your Time .. It Has To Come Someday .. You Should Be Happy With What You Have .. This IS The Way To Happiness ..
