You are my HERO for posting this!!!!
I am in the same situation, pretty much (though the working conditions are different). I hate my job, and when my supervisor came to me to ask me what I hated, she went back to the supervisor above her with a bunch of lies about what I had said. Also, she told me that this was normal for an entry-level job... that I just needed to pay my dues. Part of the problem is that I am still waitressing, and I've been waitressing for 6 years AND have a degree... I have a little problem with thinking that I haven't paid my dues enough to get a little past that.
I am currently looking as well. The problem is that I want to get completely out of this field, so not only can I not use the people there as references because of my not wanting them to know I'm looking, but they also have no clue how I work when I'm really doing something I ENJOY. Plus, I obviously cannot trust my supervisor to not tell lies about me to the interviewer.
Anyway, since I'm going through the same thing, I don't have much advice for you. I would actually much rather be in your situation than mine, but that's just my personality type--it sounds like you'd rather be in mine than yours.
I will tell you, though, that I've been on 4 different interviews, and none of them have gone over 30 minutes.
GOOD LUCK!
