I posted here Friday about burnout myself, so I read this thread with great interest... and then....
It's posts like this, and attitudes like this, that are driving me out of this business.
I thought people were supposed to be able to care for themselves WITHOUT GUILT.
People like this can HAVE the work and the wear and tear on their bodies and minds.
There is another life out there. This is not how others live, and if a person is feeling unhappy and violated, there's a good chance there is a REASON.
Rest is necessary. Rest increases productivity.
Wow, how amazing.
This has sealed my fate; I'm getting out of this business. Thank you, Janet, for making up my mind.
To Burned Out... you have my empathy; I've been there, and PLEASE take care of yourself. I worked 70-hour weeks for a few years and then ended up in the hospital, and I'll never get those years back. Do what is best for your life. This job and this field are NOT the only thing in the world, and there IS life after MT or even after ICing.
