First, Welcome!  We love having new voices join our group.  I'm sure you'll find lots of good information and helpful advice both on the site and specifically in the forums.  Hope to see you in here often.

Onto your question...Without really knowing more specifics about what you're job entails, I'd have to suggest you look around.  Is there anything, any avenue of learning, that is something you would be interested in and could add to your duties?  Is there something that someone else is currently doing that they may not like and that would challenge you and help you grow and be happier in your current position?  Do either of the bossie's have a task that they have to do routinely that they despise that could be done by you and they only get it to review and sign and pass along as their completed work (with proper credit to you, hopefully)?  Any reports that have to be filed that could be completed by you and submitted after review by them?  Anything?

If not, and if you really are as bored as you say, then you may want to look around at what is offered in your area.  Then start looking at pros and cons of leaving this job to take on another one.  In your area, are there jobs even available at this time?  If you're making good money in your current position, you may find that potential employees will overlook you because they can not match that salary and don't feel that you would take a cut in pay, which could make finding another job more difficult.  Start weighing all your options, what is the growth potential in your current job/company and do you want to advance to another position or type of job in the same company or stay with similar jobs and therefore need to look outside the company?  Will they assist you in furthering your education?  If so, how?  And could some of the work be done on company time?

Plenty of things to look into before really deciding whether or not to stay or go.  I'm sure others will have even more suggestions for you.  Once again, welcome, and keep in contact to let us know what you decide.
