I've worked as a developer for over 20 yrs. I recently stopped since I found myself not caring about someone else's vision of their projects or fixing a never ending list of bugs. But, I love being able to define my own project and doing all I can to make it a success. Basically, I've burned out my ability to deal with the politics of software development but I still love creating a project from nothing. I suspect there are many burnouts like me. Had I known this in the pass I would have directed my career differently. I'm in the process of switching my career since I have to pay the bills but I will continue to program as a hobby.
