How awful! I do not think that it was a coincidence that they cooked this all up when you were on vacation, then sprung it on you when you get back.
I don't know what your workplace is like, but from what I have gleaned from being in the work world, and hearing from other people, my guess is that the crux of the matter is this:
"He told me that because I wasn't full time, and had difficulties traveling, I couldn't be. "
Sometimes, companies just want someone there 100% full time, who can travel all over the place, and be at their beck and call. Even if it means that person isn't as good as someone else. I am not saying this is right. Also, dividing up duties may make sense to you, but to them, they are thinking it's easier to just have one person do it, even if that person isn't as bright as you. Again, I am not saying this is right, but I think it's business logic, not a reflection of you or your work.
Do you work for a corporation? They seem more screwed up than other places.
