Work harder on yourself than on your job (Score 1)

I've been in software development for 25+ years and Jim Rohn (http://www.jimrohn.com/) puts it best: "Work harder on yourself than you do on your job"

In short, it is your responsibility to improve your skills so you can get a better job or more pay or even to just accomplish what your manager is expecting of you.

Longer version: http://getmotivation.com/jimrohn/jrmajor_key.html I'd suggest that you make a plan to obtain the training you need; present it to your manager; if they don't go for it, get the training anyway, solve the problems you face, and find a new job.
