I like UnixGuy's perspective on the issue. Try to look at things in a different light.[h=2]"After a time, you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing, after all, as wanting. It is not logical, but it is often true." Spock[/h] -

Take it as motivation. Lab and cert up, gain experience, do everything you can to improve. Who knows, the boss that insulted you may be coming to you one day asking you to sign his time card.
Never piss off someone who's younger and motivated, you never know where you'll see them down the road.
So true! Speaking from personal experience I was working in a retail/customer service type position and the manger along with several other workers flat out told me I wasn't qualified or ready for a higher level position, that I needed to put in more years, and that I was trying to move up too fast. Well year and a half later I have received two promotions and I'm sitting in the back office doing IT work in the same pay range as that manager
Its amazing to see the difference between employees that are motivated to do great things and those just collecting a paycheck hoping to move up one day. -

Not to sound insensitive, maybe i've been in IT/customer service for too long, but that sounds like nothing to even pay attention to.
