Background:
I've just joined the firm a month ago and on my first week, I realized there's a mismatch in skills and expectations. Coming from an intensive consulting background to a more relaxed environment, I've come to the realization that this job isn't for me but I have no choice but to stay on for a couple of years due to a bond. I did not share this with anyone else nor show it in my body language.
Recently, my team lead started sending me potential job opportunities in a field more related to my existing skill set. She mentioned very bluntly to me that she's also looking out and that I do not have much of a future in this place due to the enormous amount of red tapes present.
Question:
How do I navigate through this mess and not get swayed by my team lead's offers?

What is a "bond"? I haven't heard that term before. Is this a legal thing or a relationship thing?

Its an employment bond. So if I break it, I'll have to pay a fee. The reason there's a bond is because the company paid for my relocation.

Did your blunt team lead hire you? Can she help you cancel the bond early? Would you actually be interested in any of the jobs she found for you, if the bond did not exist?
