let me see if I understand you're saying "I can do whatever I want but noone else is allowed to mock me at all". In the words of Bugs Bunny "What a Maroon".

Do you go to work and expect to be treated like a pet? Perhaps a pat on the head or a tickle behind the ear is what you want. Just because your boss doesn't treat you like a lapdog doesn't mean that he doesn't respect you or appreciate what you do. Do you get payrises? If so, your boss appreciates you. Hollow platitudes are just that - hollow. The only thing that should matter to you is the quality of your work and the salary that you take home at the end of the month. Pride in your work and a competitive salary are far more important to your happiness than having your boss pat you on your back.

At least a good rub on the arse.

Despite your growing list of short-comings, you seem to recognize my status here. Nobody has ever called me "mighty" before, but hey, I'll accept it.

There are other (now) more obvious reasons, but the nickname thing is tangible.

I've been told before that it's already there. Try to come up with something more creative (and further removed from a primary school playground).

In that case, it's obvious that your reading comprehension skills are honed to something somewhat less than what I would call a knife-edge. Besides that, why is it not okay for me to tell you stop whining, but it's entirely alright for you to call me an asshole/moron? Frankly, I'm surprised your A.D.D. didn't kick in before you finished typing your drivel.

I don't have any friends, but people I know would laugh and point their fingers at you nonetheless.

Look, you come in complaining that your boss doesn't praise you. Maybe it's because you're a prick, or maybe you suck at programming. It could even be that he just plain doesn't like you (an entirely believable possibility at this point). My advice is to STFU and get back to work. Nobody likes a self-important whiner.

Well, that's a different matter and depends on how he wants to advance his career.:-D

That's not true. In the UK he backstabbed his way to becoming Prime Minister.

I try not to comment of the political events of other countries (excent Iran, Mexico, Venezuela, and France).

I think that many managers are so wrapped up in their own self promotion that they either forget, or in cases I know of never knew how to, to offer a statement of praise. They get fast tracked through as if they are someone important and forget the civility and human touch that separates quality experienced managers from these fast-track johnnies who think they have made it. The effect of a well placed "thank you" or "well done" to the person who made that difference cannot be underestimated.
I still remember having to write your own code in FORTRAN rather than be a cut and paste merchant being pampered by colour coded Intellisense - ahh proper programming - those were the days :)

True, but the employee constantly yearning this acknowledgement and comparing himself with other employees in terms of this acknowledgement is digging himself deeper and deeper into a hole of insecurities! If you feel your being ignored, ignore it. Managers often tend to lack the required social skills and also tend to treat people differently, they're only human.
