Employee advanced to manager position after it was discovered that his manager is living in his truck due to job-related expenses

It is not simple to work in the highly competitive setting of today's workplace. When we learn that we happen to earn more money than the person seated next to us, whether we prefer to own it or not, there is a tiny sense of satisfaction. When it comes to promotions, we'll do whatever it takes to succeed, even if it means treading on someone else to get that promotion.

The story below is of a shocked worker. The original poster (OP) had been employed by the same company for a considerable amount of time. When the annual promotions were announced, OP was overjoyed at the prospect of perhaps being eligible. But when someone he had never heard of managed to score the promotion he had been chasing for so long, it left him feeling empty and bitter.

Although OP was initially disappointed, he was happy for the man who had received the promotion rather than for himself because he appeared to be a great guy and deserving of the job. Day by day, OP and his new manager became more and more close. This is why OP was perplexed when the manager told him he was leaving and asked who he wanted to replace him.
