Sup /adv/, just want some quick tips... on my job scenario.

Basically, my job is not the norm. My boss is an eccentric character, and the work environment is just weird. I won't disclose what industry I am a part of, but it has to do with that. It's not exactly hostile, and there is NO pressure at all, but it's unprofessional in many ways. However, that is not the problem here.

The problem is that I don't care at all about the work I'm doing. It started as an internship, so I went in knowing this was an experiment for me. I wasn't familiar with the work (or any work for that matter, as this was my official first on-the-books job) and I wanted to learn what it was about, if I would enjoy it, and what working in an office in general was like. I didn't exactly learn the typical things about working from this place, but I did learn enough... mostly that I don't do very good work if I don't care at all about the environment or the work itself.

However, I've become a bit of a MVP at this company. It comes with the kind of work I'm involved with (a lot of administrative type of work). I'm not really sure how to get out of it now, or in a way that isn't unprofessional.

What did you do to get out of a situation like this? What was your situation and where did you go after? What were your main concerns? I want to hear some stories, so that maybe I can get some insight into my own. Thanks in advance.
