I don't..
Know what sector you're in but there are always creative ways of working towards the company getting going in more of a direction that will keep your time filled - and obviously develop the comapany...

I truely understand your brain drain atm, it can be truely disheartening - but although you say you have exhausted all possible outlets for the business, I truely doubt you have...

Theres always a millino things that should be done... from developing the market sales wise for the future, brand comapny development - to creating or inventing new products/services.

As a 15% stake holder you could turn the whole enterprise into a quite a nice little earner in a matter of a few years, but also have developed a strategic plan for when the boss man is fully on board.

I think that half of the problem is that your boss is probably up to his eyeballs with the other company and simply doesnt have time to think about what you're doing... so I think its initiative time...

Hell.. open the gambit here - we can all brain storm...

I think local government jobs will see quite a change in the next few years - dont they operate a last in first out attitude to employees - either way, they arent likely to remain as lucrative as they have been in the past.

So I say during your 9 to 5 put your thinknig cap on, but really appreciate the time you have, and look forward to when the green light stops flashing... :D
