You are not pissed off, you are burned out.
When all the people around you are fine and you can't cope with the environment, it's time to look for professional help, for your sake.
- thdrdt 7y agoI don't think he/she is burned out. When you are burned out you can't do anything anymore. Then you are way over 'being pissed off'. But! being pissed off at work is a very good way to get burned out. Most people who are burned out are having conflicts with their moral and what they do or how they live. So good for the author to make this clear to his boss and is taking action. Because in the end being mad will turn into being burned out.
- dredmorbius 7y agoPor que no los dos? Burnout is complex and seems to have multiple causes. But chief elements are 1) being overwhelmed and 2) having no sense of agency or effectiveness. Being in a situation in which: 1) You have clear view of the problems. 2) Others around you deny they exist, and/or 3) Actively prevent you from addressing them, and/or 4) Fail to provide you the tools, time, staff, authority, or other resources to address the problem(s), and/or 5) Act, operate, or produce / deliver products in ways that are completely insufficient to the problem domain 6) Or other forms of denial, frustration, sabotage, etc., of an effective response ... ... I think that someone in such a situation would become both angry and burnt out. In fact, I could empathise quite strongly with such feelings.
