Sounds like your boss is building a case against you. He could say you haven't done anything in months, nevermind that he hasn't given you anything. So it sounds like you'll be looking for a job no matter what, so why not leave on your own terms?

Sounds like it to me too. But these are not great times to move job -- in the interim you should be using your time to learn new technologies which you could reasonably explain might be useful to you current post, since you boss has not assigned you any new work. Make sure you keep records of all pertinent communications with him, so that you can demonstrate the latter if push comes to shove.

Good luck!

Why is this not a great time to move jobs? Surely it depends on what the company does. Engineers are still in high demand.

Thanks for the input.
