Passed up for promotion

Pardon my language, but I FUCKING HATE my job...

I hate my damn boss especially..
Ive worked for this company for 2 1/2 years earning far less than I should, and I dont get any respect from anyone.. Instead they just screw me over just to hold me in place because they know that Im the glue that holds everything together in my department.

My last boss was forced out. Well, she quit after the company decided to cut her pay and give it to their young upstart yes-man whom they made her boss. Things have spiraled downhill since then.
He promoted one girl for one supervisor position who definitely deserved it, but then slammed her with all the work for our department as well. Then, an administrator position was created for my department. It was not offered to me, which was fairly offensive. I had to apply for the position. Now, as I said, I have the experience, 2 1/2 years worth with exceptional reviews, and I had all of the education requirements..
The perfect candidate.

Well, I was all pleased with my interview until I found out that the new marketing associate applied. My heart sank.. I knew that she would ruin this for me and she did..
Today, I was told that I didnt get the job..
Why? Because apparently Im a negative person who says I hate my job I want to quit and I shouldnt be rewarded for that.

I couldnt believe it.. and I cried in front of him. He's fucked me over again..

Several months ago he had my evaluation from my previous boss thrown out and I was denied my previously approved yearly pay increase. He cited that he was going to give me another review that hasnt happened yet.


*sigh*
I really hate this... I really do..

Before I joinned the government, I had a job exactly like this. I received 3/4 the pay that the other workers did, and did 3x the job.

So, this is what I did. I had scheduled my vacation around Memorial Day and, two days prior to me leaving for the trip, recieved confirmation that I would be starting trainning the day following my return from vacation. I made my old workplace(a law firm) a copy of my employment date and placed it on my snotty boss''s desk. I happily smiled at him and told him that this was my two week''s notice.

I have no regrets.
