At What Point...
...is it okay for me to be angry without being a Sore Loser?
I'll sum up (insert Inigo Montoya quote here): My office gives away cash bonuses at our annual holiday party. Not to everyone... They lump them together and "raffle" them out as large prizes. They give away four prizes of $2500, four of $5K, two of $10K and one of $50K. Pretty cool stuff.
Needless to say, I didn't win anything. It would have been nice, but I didn't really expect to. Not terribly disappointed. Terribly.
The person who did win the big prize in in my department. While I am glad for her, I just, kind of, wish it didn't go to the biggest bitch in the company. She tends to be a snotty little miss better-n-you at normal times. I've had to call her customers to get updates to the contracts I've been trying to process, but lacked info. Info that she should have had on there in the first place. And why do I call? Because it is part of my job? No. Because she didn't feel like it.
And now we've had to listen to her for the last couple of days, bragging and going on and on and on and on and on.... about her big win. How special she is. How awesome her Christmas is going to be and the great new car she is getting...
Y'know? You got lucky. Luckier than every one else. It doesn't make you a better person! Shut the hell up!! We really don't want to hear it! Congrats and all that, but shut your freakin' pie hole!! Enough already!

Sounds to me that if she hadn't won you would have had to post about how she wouldn't stfu about how deserving she was, and how undeserving whoever did win was. So no, you're not a sore loser, she's an asshat douche.
