Maybe because the oilpatch is so grim right now, but I am of the view you have to make the best of your current situation. Doing more should give the employer more confidence in you, and it certainly should give yourself more confidence in your own abilities.

I'm not disputing that, and given the current state in Alberta, I would be conservative too. Then again, I did leave the province partially to find better opportunities in BC (there was also a bad marriage, but let's not go there).
To your other point, I would never ever express dissatisfaction about anything to my employer. Either you move seamlessly or you stick it out.
