I've had a number of jobs in my career. In some, I've been great. In others, not very good. I've been pretty much the same person each time, and the descriptions for these jobs have not varied that much. The particulars can really make or break things, though.
People and jobs are like locks and keys. Some fit, some don't, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the key (or the lock) is bad.
If you have the option to look for other positions, inside or outside of this company, you might consider it. It's a lot more fun to be a big fish in a little pond than a tiny one in an ocean.
- sgillen 7y agoThis was going to be my advice. But honestly if you can find a position you are more of a natural in you will feel a lot better about anything without changing anything else.
- eanthy 7y agoI agree with this too. Especially if what the company does is not of interest it's also very difficult to care about what you are doing or even improve in it. Just find another position where you fit.
