Truly tough one 4 years ago

My current position – probably a mistake. My gut instinct was to NOT take it. However, work guidelines say I’m stuck in it for 10 more months, unless there’s dramatically extenuating circumstances. (It’s a strong guideline, not a mandate.)

Well, now there’s 3 other positions open in the company that require a specialized degree/certificate – one that maybe 10 people total (in a HUGE company) actually have. I’ve got it. They might have to hire outside the company if they can’t find qualified people inside. And I’m inside.

But do I stay in a seriously difficult situation and see what I can learn from it (among other things, how to stay in that very difficult situation for 10 more months – see my goal about ‘difficult coworker’)? Or do I ask for permission to investigate the other job(s)?
