[quote=Anonymous]I started at a new job several months ago and, while I am not unhappy with the switch, I am bored with my actual work and have a coworker that I find difficult (perhaps they find me difficult too).

It’s fine. It’s a so-so department in an otherwise highly rated organization. I took a title demotion because there is a greater earning potential, even at a lower level. The work is not interesting to me, but mostly I feel very unempowered. I guess it was to be expected. I had a relatively high position at my old organization and now everything I do is politely scrutinized before it can be sent (I do not believe that is specific to me that it’s like this, but more that it’s a cultural norm). I don’t know how to onboard effectively because everyone is home. I am on a remote work agreement and that’s awesome but also…..how do I get out of this rut? Any tips for adjusting to moving backward or getting enough understanding of the organization to eventually find a place to move internally somewhere more interesting? I think I just need an attitude adjustment. [/quote]
