Ok Cf the reason you didn’t get the job is they can’t afford to loose there best tech to a management position they need you fixing **** and saving lives , way less headaches pulling a wrench, then dealing with all the personalities, I too was overlooked at my last job ,sure I was bitter at first but after watching the guy that got the job struggle man I was glad it wasn’t me , just fix **** and go home , no extra paperwork, no personal to deal with cheers .
At 53 I am nearing the end of my career and it would be nice to get some recognition. In the interview it was asked if I would still work on the floor and since he took the position he has done nothing but pace and watch me work. I planned on still wrenching as was required by the job because I enjoy what I do. I guess my best way to say it is always the brides maid and never the bride. At least now they will have to think hard to give me a reason why he was better suited for the job.
