It happens all the time, and each one of us that hasn't experienced it will eventually come across it. Either you will be a victim, or you'll observe others be the victim; it hurts either way -- Losing something (whether it be a grand opportunity, or some material thing) to those wiling to do anything for the sake of their own advance.
I have been so proud of myself lately because although I might be too passive at times -- I'm really working on it -- I DO know when I should be rewarded of great work. I fight for myself all the time because I know ultimately no one else is going to do it for me.
(Side note:) Relying on any partner to do the dirty work for your is not the best idea. In any relationship, either party can leave the other at any time. Relationships come and go. **Man I have a lot of ideas running through my head.
Back to my point: Dog-eat-dog world out there. I fought for this raise, I spoke up. So many times people don't speak up enough about how they really feel. They just go along with their authorities and agree on every thing they say, and the authorities take advantage. NO ONE'S GOING TO DENY ME WHAT I'M WORTH.
Then the question arises, "But what is just?" Just because you're my supervisor, my parent, my guardian, whatever . doesn't mean that I should blindly listen to what you tell me all the time. I have the mind to judge what's wrong and right, and if the person I rely on is wrong, I will not conform to that thought.
Surely, I'm not rounding up members to conform against their authorities. I'm not asking you to doubt your guardians. I'm simply asking for you to be a little more conscious. Use your head. Ask questions if you don't understand. Use your judgment!

And I have to say, I'm proud of you.
You've got a good head on your shoulders, baby.
More later about other interesting things! :D
