This was a more general remark. We know that you are in a job where you 
are not happy and that is probably below your capacities. At the same 
time you repeatedly show that you are not interested in a wider view on 
the field you work in. In this field you have to read a number of 
different sources to get a feeling for what direction the industry is 
taking (or if you are realy good: what direction it will be taking in a 
couple of years). If you don't develop yourself there is no way you will 
ever get a job elsewhere and it is quite likely that you loose the one 
you have as soon as a competent manager enters. I know it is unlikely, 
but such persons do exist, although few and far between, so you still 
have a chance.

In short you have to choose: complain about your job or complain about 
all sorts of technologies that you were not aware of, but you can not do 
both.
