Well if it's not the money ..
If you aren't happy with the way the actual company is being managed .. just changing departments probabaly won't solve this problem. Unless it's just one higher up person in your particular department who is being the wrench in this situation.
If this is the case then I think I would see if anyone else is having the same concerns, and if so, go higher up the chain and presnt your concerns and try to get them fixed.
I'm not happy with the way my entire company is being managed right now. I don't like the new people they have brought in (we merged with another company recently), who are implementing "new and better ways" to do things (because they aren't better in reality, only in paper theory during their meetings, meetings between people who have never actually "done" any of the jobs they are "making better").
If that be the case, then I say look for another job. You might think you won't find a better package .. but there is always a better package, especially if you have the time to shop around at your own leisure.
At least that's my opinion. I mean I'm not saying school is a bad option .. because it certainly isn't. But if you are unhappy there, going to school is only going to make it worse. Because then you will be stressed from work and from school.

Well if I change departments I meant by going from IT to Finance or some change like that. So the management in question would definitely be out of the picture plus I know all the people that would be involved so I can ask around and find out who the better managers were.
After what I went through to graduate with my Bachelor's, School can't stress me out from what I've already done. Work isn't really that stressful, it's just a matter of how I'm perceived and how important I am to said managers. I find myself to be quite patient so I don't think stress would be a factor in that case.
Now should I go for another job, here's the important question. I apparently flat out suck at interviews. I've never gotten a job that I interviewed for unless they hired everyone they interviewed. How the hell do you get good at interviews?
I'll keep that in mind. For those that have actually met me, do I come off as intimidating? (I've been told this on numerous occasions not dealing with interviews so I want to make sure)

A vote for this. I had a similar situation (the difference being that my management gave me less to do). Unless you have a family or a truck-stop crank habit, there's no sense in staying with a bad situation.
I work at an IT placement company.
Wait, place me!!! Actually honestly if we ever go under imma come to you
I have a very light IT background. I have always been used as the liason between IT departments and the Owner. Basically I am Bill Bucannon, Cant kill shit like Jack but I can come up with good ideas and take the credit for it.
