Protip, he's actually trying to brag.
Anyone who actually has been burnt out will know it happens after many months or even a year or more of tireless work.
If you're burning out and recovering ever next day. That's just being exhausted after a hard day's work.

No need to assume the worst in people. >Anyone who actually has been burnt out will know it happens after many months or even a year or more of tireless work. Now it sounds like you're trying to brag. Granted, I tend to agree with you—the only caveat being, it's very possible to burn out on shorter timescales. For example: last year I did 10 contiguous 20-hour workdays. Despite the fact I've never been more productive in my life, my brain was largely mush by the 10th day. Ended up burned out for weeks after. (Now it sounds like I'm trying to brag.)
- graphitezepp 9y agoThis trying to brag thing becomes a race to the bottom quickly. You should be allowed to talk about things you did which may in fact be seen in a positive light.
- rl3 9y agoFor sure—that's the punchline. Not to brag, but my humor is probably too dry for its own good.
