Always be looking, especially if you're not happy!
1) Perhaps something out there is better and you'd leave the mediocrity you're in now.
2) Perhaps nothing else is better or other stuff is worse in some way, and this might help put your current situation into perspective.
The economy sucks now, something else will suck later. If you haven't put anything on your resume in the last year you might as well have not been working at all since then.
This isn't meant to be a piece of puff optimism advice but courage-up and fix your situation if it sucks. It sounds like you have a good attitude about it overall (helping your coworkers), though.
- systems 18y agoAlways be looking, especially if you are good! The best way to raise your salary is to switch jobs, if you are good, you would have high employability, and moving shouldn't be a problem. I understand thomas' lack of confidence, his skills are in areas that may be perceived as low key CSS and Front-end HTML stuff. How would he fare againt JEE and RoR gurus! Which is what the market is hiring, right! ... Well not really, there is demand for all sorts of skills, you just need to be good and confident!
