As someone who has worked hard for years (at some point I had three con-concurrent jobs), I’m not sure working hard is the variable that causes burnout :thinking_face:
I will say tho, it gave me persistent back problems and RSI for two years :). But that again is not just “working hard”. It was bad posture, lack of stretching, breaks and exercise, I think.
Edit: Perhaps it’s the nature of the work or working hard unhealthily (physical and mental?) or the person’s characteristics.
- tommica 3y agoI remember hearing about burnout, that it becomes more likely to happen the less meaningful work you do.
- actionfromafar 3y agoNot sure about that.
- amarant 3y agoWhat's the equivalent of "victim blaming" for sick people? Because this is that.
- tommica 3y agoReally, you think it sounds that?
