That is awesome canuckguy!
I have the worst boss that I have ever had in my life, the man is intentionally rude and mean to his employees. He purposely tries to put people down, and not in a playful manner, in a hurtful way.
I am also in a job that I care very little about the subject material. I have no interest in what I do and do not believe that I ever will be interested in it. But I am good at it and would probably be able to excel in it, but I need to get out.
My plan was to work 1 to 2 years out here and get some good field experience and then go to a job that I really want to do. I wanted to actually take my experience and move overseas and get a job in the oil industry somewhere. But his has all backfired since this recession has come along. I am now trying my hardest to be seen as a valuable team member and offer to help everyone else in the office anytime they need it. Its a little difficult helping everyone else with their work when they would never in a million years even help me out with a small issue. Being the office computer guy (not actually, but I know more about computers and software than the rest combined) I get called on every single time there is a problem, and I get the nagging feeling that the boss does not give two shits for me. Its not the best situation to be in.
So I suppose I am just going to hang in there until this all turns around, then jump ship ASAP and move on to something that I will enjoy more.
