"Passed over" means that someone has been denied a well-deserved promotion or bonus. Professor Smith, who has been with the university for 26 years, was passed over for tenure; the blonde woman professor with the long legs and big boobs got tenure though, despite working at the university for only 2 years.

HOMIE: No shit. Not surprised, he's not what I'd call a "people person" ya know. DUDE: Werd. How does a micro-managing prick get that far up anyway? |
