Yeah, am I getting boring now?
I'm happy about my love life. I'm so upset about work. So, so, so upset. GRRRR

Not boring at all
I don't think anyone likes their job that much unless it's a vocation. That's why we have hobbies I think. Is the new role not going as well as you would have liked?

I chose this job and really enjoyed it
It's been 2 slow years of doing the same thing again and again, but now finally I got to do this new role, which sounded very interesting and exciting. So for the last 2 weeks I've really liked what I'm doing, despite the 4h comute every day and not having time for anything.

Now, I told one of my colleagues of one problem that we have and that'll need some time to solve, but that's fine, I'll solve it, I just need time to do it, and I have time on this role. However, my colleague told my boss, and my boss has decided, without even asking me, that another person, an "expert" is going to solve that problem, and do my new role for me, while I go back to the boring job I've been doing for 2 years.

I want to kill someone.

can you not try and convince your boss to give you a chance on it?

I've been talking with my bosses for these 2 years
They keep saying I'm brilliant and so good, but it's not the right moment, just be patient. And now what are they going to say? This is an important job, they don't want to lose it. I hate this.

that is harsh. Is there anything you can do?

I'm between
1. Fuck off, I'm fed up with you, I'm going to get another job.

and

2. Right, I'm going to work overtime for free, solve this problem and show you how good I am (I've done this before, I got congratulations from everybody, including the client, who was impressed with the job, but it doesn't seem to have changed anything)

Just take time to think before reacting.
Might be worth speaking to Mark as well see what he thinks. But you know your role and the company best. Do whatever will work out best for you. Would it be a bad move to say look I appreciate you're concerned with this issue however I think I have a solution and would like you to continue showing the faith in me you have so far and let me do my job.

Or would they bitch slap back to the basement? x
