Got passed over for promotion
Manager basically said I don't have the 'commitment' for the role because I won't work past 5pm or take on extra projects that require travel. Meanwhile my colleague without kids is getting the spot. I'm trying not to be bitter but it stings. Feels like there's no winning sometimes.
That's messed up. Plenty of successful people work reasonable hours and actually see their families. Sounds like your manager has outdated ideas about what commitment looks like.
