Thanks for the advice everyone. Having given the matter some thought, I think it's best for me to stay put for the next couple of months. I'm just going to keep my head down and my mouth shut. I won't do anything that doesn't fall directly under my job description. I'm going to have one more talk with my boss about my responsibilities and hopefully get his signatures for my apprenticeship. If he refuses, it's no big deal. My Record of Employment will have my total hours worked on it and I'll be able to send that to the government agency that regulates my apprenticeship, and I would be able to finish things off with a new employer.
I would never tell my boss of any plans to leave before I had something lined up that was a sure thing. I would give at least two weeks notice, but he can be a vengeful prick and I worry that if I showed a desire to leave, he would either make my life hell or get me fired on technicalities.
