>>>there's just a level of mental exhaustion and constant low level burnout This, x1000. It's maddening. I work in a an understaffed military HQ that tries to do too many things, while suffering through 30-50% personnel turnover every summer. We plan exercises talking about "readiness" but it's like groundhog day...EVERY.DAMN.TIME. Nothing really changes, the organization is no better prepared to fight today than it was 3 years ago, and all it's doing is burning out the mid-career professionals we'll need to carry the force when the war eventually kicks off for real. Across industries, across geographies...we are living in an oppressive cyberpunk dystopia.
