I agree with you, but sometimes "no" is not an option, especially now with some organizations, where company success relies heavily on saying "yes" to any customer request and sales people "promised" to deliver feature in 2 months, not knowing that it takes 4-6 months if done correctly, if not correctly, then 4-5 weeks, but tech debt is paid by us not by sales people.
- onion2k 5y agoSure, and those are the organisations where burnout is common. Burnout is stress-induced fatigue and exhaustion due to over commitment at work. Unless you fix the over work you can't avoid the burnout. Saying "no is not an option" just means you'll have to accept the burnout instead.
- brndoutthrw 5y agoI am hoping new job will be different for me, to avoid getting trapped into burnout loop again in new place, I am trying to minimize effects and memories to carry from current work. Do you have any recommendations for it? maybe some articles, specific mediation techniques, books, videos, anything?
