It’s like raiding in World of Warcraft. You pot your flasks, you have the best gems and enchants for your gear, you prepare your raiding food and potions, you spend hours going through theory craft of your class and practising your rotation on the training dummy. During the boss encounter, you end up one of the top few in DPS/healing meters, the boss finally goes down, and then the system gives the boss’s loot you want to the player who does not really care, hardly logins, and is at the bottom of the DPS/healing meters.
You comfort yourself, telling yourself that there is always the next week. The next week when you down the boss, you didn’t get the loot. And it happened again the week after, and after, and after. And you start asking if the random number generator has anything against you.
It is the same with life. The person who does not deserve it, tends to get the things you wanted, the things you worked hard for. And gets it again, and again, and again. And you ask if life has anything against you, if life is biased, if life is blind.
You have doubts, questioning what is the point of working so hard when those scumbags get things that you worked so hard for, without even trying.
The unfairness of it all. In game. And in life.
