['A few weeks ago a lady at my job got a promotion i thought i was going to get.', 'Oh no! I am so sorry. That is really tough.', 'It was really a tough one to swallow.', 'Did you get any feedback on what you could do to improve your chances next time?', 'Nope. I think it was just favoritism to be honest.']
