So, after 24 years I finally posted out of my current job. Same company, actually same overall division, but getting out from under a bad situation.
The job is all IT security which I'd love to get into, but know little about. That major didn't even exist when I was in school.
The great thing is, there's an unwritten rule where people let the bosses know if anyone applies for another job internally so I know they know by now.
I've been complaining to them since 2019, and cut them some slack because of covid, but years later and nothing changes. The sad thing is the overall boss can crush anything, so I fear I'll just never hear back.
So, now it is either get a new job that really interests me, or get stuck in the same old grind, now with managers who now see me as "disloyal".
