I think someone else mentioned that lack of progress/control is what causes burnout. Generally, vacations make you lose control. Depersonalization and cynicism are symptoms of burnout. But I think vacations solve burnout the same way that tissues solve colds. It's something you reach for instinctively.

> cynicism are symptoms of burnout I've possibly been mildly 'burned out' since the late 80s. And... back in my day, all the smokers and ne'er-do-wells in high school were the 'burn outs'.
