Ask HN: Boss ignoring me. What next?
4 by ktrulr | 6 comments on Hacker News.
I am an individual contributor with very high performance rating. My boss has been ignoring me for a few months. (Hasn't spoken to me for a long time. No new work). My guess is that, he wants to promote his favorites and he wants me to leave on my own. How do I handle this situation? I know that the most common advice would be, speak to him. I am not considering it. Because it might turn out to be a false alarm I would be assigned a module which I am not interested in. My current plan is to pretend that I am not aware of him ignoring me. And I will spend a lot of time learning technologies (Initially I wanted to quit, because it hurt me. But after reading various reviews, I learned that its pretty much the same everywhere. At least in my current company, the work life balance is very good. Since I am in 40's, I may find it a little difficult in a new company) My question is, have you been in a similar situation?. How did you handle it?. If I want to pretend (that I am unaware), for how long can I do with some self respect?
