Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
I'm just wondering if anyone is or has been in a similar situation.
We only have 16 months to go, however I don't think I can remain in my current employment situation. The person at the head of my department is a total dickhead, does nothing and causes major issues, Senior Management know this but believe in giving "second chances". In the meantime I'm expected to do what are essentially his duties because he is incompetent.
I have two options, the first being shut up and do it and let the stress build and the anger fester. My second option is to obviously jump ship to what may or may not be any better. At this time I am thinking option 2 is where I should head. I am not overly concerned about getting another job as it is a candidate's market, and even if my salary should drop slightly that would not be the end of the world.
My husband thinks I should stick where I am and put up with the crap, whereas I think a fresh start is called for as 16 months is a long time to be unhappy.
Has anyone else faced a similar situation?
