I appreciate all of the feedback and advice. I haven’t been in charge since the last time. I haven’t had any arguments or event felt angry since then.

It’s always good to get the input from people who are not directly involved to have an idea of whether what I am experiencing is just a subjective complaint or a legitimate problem.

Management is working to redesign the position, and in the interim the people assigned to that role seem to handle some of the more groundless criticisms without getting upset.

There are many ways out of this position and into other positions. I always like to keep my options open and may elect to advance. This kind of transition, however, takes time to plan and execute.

Meanwhile, I am embracing the more technical facets of my work.
Perhaps I simply lack the emotional fortitude for the political climate of management.
