i’m in a pickle

i have a job where the work is okay, but i cannot stand my coworkers. there’s been so much undermining and rudeness that, even though we’re in a slower slow time, i have so much built up resentment i still don’t like my job.

i also don’t like the permanently remote nature of the job (wasn’t remote when i joined), and feel like im getting pigeon-held into low value work (compliance, provision, fixed assets etc.)

am i reacting too emotionally for wanting to leave?

Well you should be running towards something not away. If it doesn't feel "right" just start taking the first steps like updating resume.

I've been working on a massive project where I'm the lead on one side of the project and the supervisor over the other half of the project micromanages, undermines, contradicts me on meetings. It drives me nuts. If I was working directly for her I'd quit so freaking fast. Luckily I don't and my boss plays middleman a lot of the times. It still bothers me even though my boss buffers a lot.

Been with a girl for few months, really enjoyed moments that we shared together and barely got into any fights. But, somehow somewhat, I don’t see that we share the same vision in our career path. She wants to settle for administration roles while I want work & travel to multiple countries, really hard for her to find those opportunities within her current roles. I like her personality a lot but I feel like really hard to share interesting topics/ my works with her. Any advice please?
