Well, I got graduated 3 years back, since then I am having trouble at all of my jobs. 1st job, my manager was hitting on me and asking me to remove my DP from whatsapp/facebook. I quit from there in like 2 months. Next job was very hard to get, At first it was easy but there also my manager was not a good boss. It is not just me, he never had a team to stay for long, in every 3 months his team gets changes. I stayed there for 4 months. I got my current job in about 6 days from leaving there. It was fresh new start, everyone was so good, manager became my very good friend, we even started travelling together in her car. Everything was going good, I was relieved that I found a perfect work environment for me. But, boom. 90 days of happiness and company lost its major project. They became poor. But I stood with them with all the hurdles and helped company to stable. I earned manager position. It was bloom. I was happy. Then my manager's husband lost his job at microsoft and he joined, I knew he was threat to my position but I looked on the positive side in learning from his experience. After him, company's atmosphere changed, I never saw my manager working, her husband is a chainsmoker, she use to smoke one in whole day but now she is either leaving for home early because they have "daru party" or smoking cigarettes outside. My boss is working so damn hard every day-night. He bosses around my boss. I don't understand what is happening. They both aren't doing anything. He is here since march 2019, we got no new projects. Instead lost 6 that I got to the company. & Now he is analyzing my performance and he says I haven't been worthy. I even had my own dream project that was my idea and I was working on it since college but I need resources so I gave my project to the company in 2017. He suddenly took all the access of my project from me and shut it down without even letting me know, that also when I was on leave. I used to love this company, I am so depressed I am even started to think that I am not meant for jobs. It's so confusing. He has asked to submit a report, and I am here writing an essay instead of it. I am loosing my optimism and my mind and I don't know what should I do. Please help.

Benefits Question:
I have worked with my current employer 10+ years and am at our maximum PTO accrual rate of 5 weeks/year. I've been looking at changing companies and have interviewed with a few. When I talk to HR, they often tell me the benefits package and note that I'd start, as a new employee, at the bottom rung of PTO accrual (often 2 weeks). Is this often negotiable? Is it unreasonable to think that the same years of experience that make me a good fit for a role should also qualify me for the higher PTO accrual rate? I realize I may not get all the way to where I am today, but to go from 5 to 2 is a kick in the gut.

Seeking professional opinions regarding sending a Thank You email, from your work email account, when interviewing for an internal position, but one that is in a different department than your current one.
Would this be appropriate, or should it be sent from a personal email account instead? Thank you in advance!

Bored at Work
My job has a lot of ebbs and flows. The busy season is almost upon us, but right now I have absolutely nothing to do. I am so bored all day long. When I'm bored like this, I usually start looking for new jobs. I have to be challenged to be content. But I really enjoy my boss, and I'm trying to stay here for at least another year or two. Last time I experienced down time, I subscribed to Coursera and got a certificate. Right now, I spend a lot of time on LinkedIn. I don't really have funds (personal or professional development through work) to do anything that has a significant cost. Does anyone have recommendations on what I should do?

Manager keeps pigeon-holing me based on ancient experience
I've been asking my manager for a new role for the past year, but they keep suggesting roles based on my past experience in a field I have no longer have any interest in and that I left almost 20 years ago.
My resume shows years of experience taking on higher-level work, but my manager ignores that and keeps saying, "we need someone who can handle (let's say) data entry, and we know you are an expert!" Yes, I've handled data entry, but I did this work a very, very long time ago and have no desire to return to it.
I'd rather management consider the interesting, much more challenging work I did right before they hired me a few years ago overseeing creative projects. How can I gently redirect them to my more recent experience that qualifies me for the higher-paying work I'd rather be considered for? I get it, the "need" someone to handle data entry, but find someone else as I already paid my dues and don't want to take on that work at this stage of my career?
As a side note, I do feel that management is saving the better jobs for certain favorite staffers and pawning off the undesirable roles to others who were hired before the new regime took over.
