I hate my boss!

I can't believe the things she does! Should I just quit? But I can't find another job!

    She's never had a good boss

    "I also recently found out that a part-time co-worker (that I got a job for) is being paid more than me! I was furious and when I approached my boss she basically told me her hands were tied."

    The LW's boss knows she's hated. Here's what's not relevant:

    That the LW got a part-timer a job. So? There's no finders' fee.

    Going to the boss to complain about another's salary is bush-league. The other person might be a better negotiator. Or easier to work with.

    Despite the LW's wonderful resume, few job offers have materialized. That's a red flag right there.

    The LW has never had a good boss, and has never been a good employee. I wonder if she's on the actual mortgage?
