Today, I ran for editor-in-chief of a magazine. I spent hours working on my speech, and offered a bunch of new ideas to increase readership. My opponent just said that she, "loved the organization". I lost by a 4-1 margin. My opponent later announced her plans for next year. They were all of my ideas. FML

She loved the "organisation" or perhaps the judges.

You better believe the people who hired her are remembering this. And that'll be a big factor next time around.

Are you serious? Someone shouldn't be upset by getting screwed out of a promotion, and someone else profiting off their hard work while they get nothing? Your logic is flawless.

This is one of those situations where we just don't have enough information. Some people are assuming that the woman only got the job because she's attractive, which could be. On the other hand, maybe you didn't get the job because you're a jerk who is impossible to work with. I've interviewed people who were smart, well-qualified, had good ideas, and were so incredibly smug and self-satisfied that I couldn't wait to get them out the door. I'm not saying that IS what you're like, but you really ought to consider the possibility that if 80% of people prefer someone unqualified over you, that might have something to do with you, not them.
