I’ve been in the same workplace for a couple of years, and there are many things I love about it. Initially, I agreed to help with minor tasks from my old department while it searched for my replacement. But it doesn’t appear as though my old supervisor is actively searching. That would have given your old supervisor — who doesn’t seem to have done you any favors — a clearer incentive to replace you promptly. The next time your old boss asks you to do something, tell him that while you were happy to help during the department’s transition, you must now give your new job your full attention.
