IT work advice thread, I guess. I don't really know where else to post this, since this is /g/ career stuff.
to preface; I work for a larger state agency, at the lowest position in IT outside of administrative staff.
6 months ago a promotion/position was created, for me. This position has all of my responsibilities. I am an admin for SCCM, windows systems administrator for 15+K devices. I routinely create scripts and fix problems. I was screened out of that promotion, which is a 20k/yr raise. After 6 months, it was filled.
Since I'm work/school full time, I decided for stability's sake, I will train this new person. I do so, honestly. This person doesn't know what a gateway is, how SCCM functions, what SCCM is, what a task sequence, power shell or what anything remotely technical is, and rebukes all work that is not spelled out in my technical how-to's I wrote. Such as creating a customer facing terminal for windows 10, he just said he won't do it, he doesn't know how and there is no SOP on how exactly to do it.
His position is higher than my supervisor and reports directly to the assistant director, they both 'argue' because he requires micro management. I, for all intents and purposes, am his supervisor and instruct him to do busy work as I take on the projects that he can't do.
Now - there is a massive raise across IT that was announced today, I will get $75 a month raise, and he will be getting $300 a month raise.
I've tried my hardest to remain calm, but I this is my breaking point. Next monday I will be given employee of the year, for IT, and the director of the entire state agency will be there. I feel like rejecting this award and walking out.
