Plateau ____

So I guess, today I realized why I've been so erked in the last few months....  No, it wasn't feeling undervalued.  No, it wasn't feeling over-worked.  It was the realization, that I have "plateaued"...

Today, one of the senior executive sales guys asked me:  "so are you still on a learning curve at your job, or have you plateaued yet?" .... and then it hit me!  Fuck, yeah!!  I have plateaued!!  I have mastered everything I have learnt to date... and I guess it pisses me off, that 1.) there hasn't been significant acknowledgement that I have mastered my skills; 2.) I feel overworked, overvalued at the specific jobs that I do - but underpaid.  3.)  Underutilized, and in fact undervalued for "value added" services.... 

I have plateaued my knowledge in my current job...  so now, if I want more (and I ALWAYS want more... only child syndrome)... I've got to go out there & GET IT!!

So the ball is in My court now - time to go after it!!  (I can't blame my team,boss, or director for not seeing my potential, my worth)... time for me to take what's my own. 

There are two reasons that I contemplate career moves.  1.)  Not satisfied with my daily learnings.  2.)  Overworked / Utilized & underpaid.   I guess lately I have fell prey to both of these... which brings me here.
