Your entire post loses credibility with one sentence. I agree with Matt. I have several people I work with who are very likeable but completely incompetent when it comes to doing their jobs.

I am a web developer and programmer (senior webmaster and only one at work) running 10 sites for 500 employees plus all online marketing. I haven't had a raise in 3 years, why should I even care about my job anymore. My wife who didn't go to college and was in her field half as much time as me is now making more money than me. How can I be positive to this at work? I also answer to 4 bosses all with different ideas. It is insane and hard to be positive in the situation!!
