I know exactly how you feel, im an atheist and I go to a catholic high school and people treat me differently all the time. I definately think you should confront your boss about this it is a huge issue.
Life isn't fair. If you've already pointed it out to your boss, then it's time to look for a new job. Don't keep harping on it, it just makes you look like a whiner.
And don't get uppity or you burn your bridges and can't even use him for a reference. It sucks. The alternative is to start your own business and be your own boss.
Except then your customers are just as hard to manage.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
