So my husband has lost a job because of health reasons (years ago). It was the same kind of job his Dad held and his grandfather had before him.
Meanwhile hubby found a new job...and by the way one which is better payed and has higher prestige, climbed the career ladder, should be very happy but still so sad because he believes that the only people worth while work in this occupation which he has been told from his fathers knee.
Now he is unhappy about this and often goes on about how the people on his new job really, really suck, because working with them is like trying to herd cats.
He is their superior at work, he tells them something and they all have their own agendas and basically do not function as a team and he sort of blames himself for this but also blames them and grows really resentful. He used to work for another company same kind of job before and it basically was the same.
Then is really unhappy with his job, his life, the fact he cannot work in his old job.
Truth to be told I am not sure if the people in his new job really are that bad or if he only has a negative attitude.
I have spend a whole lot of time listening to his complaints about them (and actually it is a bit offensive because I also never worked in the job he did at first) and gently try to make him change the topic but often that does not work.
What can I do? Getting really fed up with the topic.
