not in the least. he's in over his head, and it's glaringly obvious. he plays favorites, he's PICKED said favorite, and me and my peer are SOL.
Those are the worst, them guys usually have ego's too, to cover up their ignorance for their position.

Eh, I'm willing to bet I still have it a lot worse than you.

Shitty boss who's never here and has 0 management skills

Overall boss doesn't really want to have anything to do with me, works less than 20 hours a week on a full-time salary

And add really crappy pay on top of that
Add a killer mortgage, a car payment, and utilities to that...

The only way this company would pay me what I'm worth is if I quit, and came back some time later.
I know what it's like. I have no degree or certs at all. I know a lot, but all of it is self and on the job learned

Oh, and to top it all off today, manager called out, said 'i'm working from home'
