    After 50 years in a career…I still loved the actual work. What burned me out was workplace politics, lack of appreciation or recognition, being expected to do more and more work for less and dishonest bosses.

      Same for me! I absolutely loved the job, pay was great and i felt like I was really a part of the team. However the insane KPI’s and the fact that I received no empathy from my boss ruined it for me. Everyday I thought to myself “if i can just prove myself to be worthy long enough, all will be fine.” I gave everything i had to make it work. Good was never good enough. Despite hitting all the targets my boss always found something that she deemed unacceptable. She proceeded to give me a temporary contract in which i had to obey rules that only applied to me, like not being allowed to go on breaks with the rest of the team, not being allowed to have time off even though planning announced that there wasn’t enough work for the workers scheduled. I cried everyday. I developed these rage attacks in which i could only scream and howl. About two months ago I cracked. I’m on sick leave now. Everyday tasks are impossible, i have no sense of time, i forget to eat, i can hardly sleep, im isolated and depressed. The employment agency i work for put me on crisis intervention. I will never let anyone treat me like this ever again. At this point i just hope I recover some of my abilities and that I’ll be able to get back to work in the near future. No job, NOTHING is worth the damage severe burnout can cause.

    This is a pretty good description of job burnout. Unfortunately, it doesn't suggest any remedy for people who are already so burnt out that they can't and don't want to work any more either in their current profession or any other, but need to work somewhere in order to support themselves and their families.

    My philosophy to avoid burn out is simple. I do my best work and do a hard days work within reason. If I fail to meet impossible goals set by my bosses then that’s their problem. Let them fire me I refuse to lose 1 second of sleep over work its just not worth it.

      I’ve been burnt out for a 1.5 years. High workload and false promises by carrot and stick tactics.
      I loved my job, I love what it meant, I followed the vision and it has a great story behind it. I was fully engaged and sprinting for 4 years.
      They took advantage of my loyalty. They didn’t take the time to care. they only threw money at the problem which is something I never even asked for.
      They started excluding me from organizational charts, ignoring my metrics. They took advantage of another employee for 6-months just to somewhat honor the request and they lied about his treatment after consulting with the employee.
      They would give me 2 false dates to expect some permanent help. No one bothered to give me a call and say sorry, not gunna happen.
      It’s been a year since the last false date. The last time I had hope for help.

    I have scars psychically and mentally from a job I worked for 9 years. The pandemic forced me to leave, and that was a blessing in disguise. I was too afraid to leave on my own. In no way am I saying the pandemic was a good thing to happen. I was insightful of my mental health problems before the pandemic and already diagnosed and on meds for years. It is sad that a pandemic is essential for people to realize the mental health struggles they have and thought were just normal every day problems. And now places are trying to pay soo much more to employees because I hope the wave of paying sh*t and expecting perfect work is BS. I MEAN “employees at will” there is barely anything to protect most people and it causes the lower/middle class to give up on rising higher. Or to die trying or maybe get lucky with a family member (nepotism) or they have a great boss! *I learned so much from awful management that I can be the world’s best damn boss at this point*

  • @wintrywinter
    @wintrywinter 5 років тому +74

    This is the clearest, most detailed and most accurate description of burnout i heard so far. And I've listened to a lot to try and understand what i am experiencing.
    The worst aspect is the loss of effective cognitive function and starting to not care about a job i loved. My cancer advocacy role is something so worthwhile, so necessary and important, but I've started to not care, to be indifferent, impatient, envious and cynical re those people who are still passionate.
    This is not me anymore.
    And i desperately want to get back to the energetic, eager, excited person that i was 2 years ago.
    I took on too much and not got any help. Worked longer and harder to get stuff done, but never enough.
    And not a lot of thank you's.
    I now also feel shame that I am failing and thinking i am not the right person for the job.
    I can't even think straight any more, let alone have any impressive or coherent conversation with people.
    Not sure how to fix it.🙁

    • @ocean_monster1
      @ocean_monster1 4 роки тому +15

      I don't have an easy solution or answer, but one thing:
      Your language, to me, seems to imply a person who is very demanding of themselves. A key factor to burn-out.
      "I desperately want to be who I was"...
      No. You need to love the burned out person you are now. We all change, but it doesn't mean you cannot be who you were or that you would have lost something permanently. You need to heal but you cannot do that by forcing it or trying to be who you were. Love yourself, forgive yourself. "Heal thyself, healer", as they said.
      I'm sorry, I'm sure this might all sound like of bunch of tired clichés, but just felt like saying this. It's a long way to go and a simple UA-cam comment won't change anything, but I just wanted to say this, because I kinda recognise that language.... You're hard on yourself.....
      I'm a person who was doing a overworked, underpaid Google marketing job....while my mother is slowly dying of cancer. I've tried to make these parts fit together for the past year until I got the diagnosis of severe work-related exhaustion. I don't feel normal either but I accept who I am now, and that I don't "need" to be anything now, except who I am right now. A burned out husk, but that's still me.

We often don't need a boss to criticize us because we have a voice in our head that does that constantly. So I agree that that factor combined with everything outlined in this talk leads to faster burnout. I haven't held a job for 3 years due to burn out and the decision to not deal with all the difficulties that Covid 19 added to the already stressful workplace.

In order for my skills to get better I have to communicate and connect with a lot of people, which exhausts me more than usual because of social anxiety. And when I do talk it's like I never know what I need to say to get what I want. I don't know the framework of my workplace because its a ministry, things intermingle, the place is large and this framework is commonly known by higher ups and not the general staff. I know it should be easy to go and just talk to people and find out what I need to know but it's like mind isn't willing to pull together the pieces, I can't focus, I have little to no drive and I'm beginning to doubt I have a place here when I can't even write up a legal document without making stupid mistakes.

Every shift, I had to deal with to much negativity from customers plus delayed response from the management. It was good for a while but after quite sometime, I found myself detesting the sound of the phone and the policies being drilled to our heads. Our salary is a day delayed and a very cheap one. Tonight I didn't go to work because I am anxious and awfully depressed. I have talked to my supervisor about this but he just shrugged it off and asked me to come to work. Of course I didn't. Because how am I gonna deal with customers when I am not okay myself? I tried to ask for a leave but they didn't allowed me. Every night, we're always berated about the policies and metrics, all the while instilling into our heads that we are just numbers and we can be replaced..
    I think workers abroad are luckier than me because they get paid sick leaves and you can use it without being judged. Here, depression is just dismissed as a "seasonal" thing wherein fact I have been battling it all my life. I cannot afford check up because it costs too much.

    This is a great talk to introduce the work done so far in the field of burnout, its causes, remedies... Highly recommended, even if it's just to learn some common ground concepts and terms to enable meaningful conversations on the topic.

    I walked out on the job that i had work so hard to attain. I was a school principal in a small Texas town. Campus was doing better than what i inherited. scores were up, discipline was better. Problem was that I had a boss that was about nothing but politics and taking care of the “influential“ people on my campus. Stabbed in the back constantly. All I was ever told was I wasn’t the person they hired when in actuality, neither were they. In fact, who is going to be the same person in that environment? I got so burned out and depressed that I just walked out the day before school started. I was at the point that I didn’t wanna live anymore. I retired. I still have regret and nightmares. I hated leaving when I did but it was about self preservation at that point. Didn’t matter they had me replace in five minutes. One of the backstabber’s got the job.

    Academic science is particularly bad/abusive. Power differentials and stakes can be very unfavorable for up-and-coming young(er) people. More main stream coverage needed.

    So we now have a good understanding of burnout. Great, except that when looking for solutions, we have to rely on organizations that are willing to change. This is not a great situation when working in state institutions, such as education or health care.

    I’m burned out from creating art. Working and studying almost all day all days during months is mentally exhausting. I want to get back and draw but I can’t enjoy it and I can’t give my best, I always drop out every time I get back to draw. This sucks because I want to create, but I don’t have the energy to do so.

    I didn't think that they had burn-out in the USA.
    You are either a "hard worker" or a "slacker" and a "bum" end of story in the USA.
    So I worked for 41 years. I quit working 3 years ago and never felt better except for the self-imposed guilt that I put on myself for not working.
    I want to want to work again, but if I am honest with myself, I just don't want to work anymore.
    At some point enough is enough.
    I am worried about two things:
    1.) Not having enough money and becoming homeless.
    2.) Having to go back to work because of #1.

    • @manfredconnor3194
      @manfredconnor3194 3 роки тому +1

      Yeah, I feel the same way. I am done with work, done with people and totally done with stupid bosses and all their stupid shit. I want to want-to work again, but I just don't and I am not sure how to really want to again or if I should. I am running out of money and worried about becoming homeless. I have decided that if I become homeless, I will just find asshole managers and kill them in order to eat. I see this as a proactive solution to the entire problem.

    I looked this up and came across this video when I’m trying to do my Professional Development Plan for work. And I haven’t a clue as to what to put down. I have no plan, no ambitions for my career at all. My only “plan” is to survive until 5:00 so I can GTF outta here and go home. Yet my boss is hounding me to put together professional goals and a plan to attain those goals. Ugh. How do you fill that out when you care nothing for your job or career? Im just here for the paycheck. But I certainly can’t put that down. So I’m literally copying stuff from Google just to put something down and make it look like I actually care.

      @@xxyes8879 Thanks for your post. It is so true. Most jobs look better from the outside. But the truth is, most of them are challenging too. I decided to create my own business. It is not easy either. There is a saying "Wherever we go, we take ourselves there". That's why, if we don't change our mindset, patterns etc, we will get into the same situation again. 90% of success is psychology/mindset, how you deal and react to stress, situations etc.

    Oof this is me, I have been working as a temporary employee in a company and have taken on more responibility in the hopes that they would hire me permanently. I have brought in projects and thus money to the company and am project leader for one of their larger projects. Yet when they announced a permanent in my own section that I applied for I was not even called into interview because I was already a part of the group... Their solution is to give me yet another extention on my contract... I'm bending over backwards to show my worth but they dont see me and properly hire me... I am now hitting the wall.
    Additionally I am sitting at the other side of the country from my work group adding to a feeling of isolation. I dont know why I am still trying...

On my last day they interviewed another newly qualified teacher in my classroom, they never told me they had a vacancy. It felt bad. My advice to you is write all of the above on your cv and start applying for jobs elsewhere. Use the experience in this company to get a better job somewhere you're valued.

Now all these years later along with all these same slugs I've been working with that only work part time, the boss says because of covid no one wants hire on to fill openings! At current 67 years old I told them I want to go on part time too!! The boss said "If you don't like it just quit". anticipating a complete impending overload and nerves break down can't I ask my doctor for a note that I need to take a few months off? I waited too long now and I can't get any help from my employer. This is a huge nation wide company

    If a normal garden variety human being needs to spend their weekends and vacations recovering from their work days, burnout is inevitable and that will be squarely on the leaders who designed that work environment - they’ll blame everyone but themselves when everyone inevitably starts quitting. If you’re relying on the overtime and heroics of your team to survive (Work hard play never! Do more with less!), then you better have strong autonomy, interesting highly skilled work, and a strong sense of purpose and psychological safety in your workplace. Sadly most places that expect unreasonable workloads also take away the very things that drive humans to want to excel. Hire robots if you don’t want to deal with the messy side of having humans work for you.

    I had to work like the high school kids when I was in my early 20’s just to get a 25 cent raise! My managers wouldn’t give me a raise, they said to me that my work is the best I close the store the best! I said “I won’t anymore. If I am “the best” at my position why don’t I get paid more?” “I will have to close the store like the 16 year olds because at age 16 I worked for this business and I had a better work ethic. So there is NO excuses for them to be paid equal to me when I work 10x harder” and that’s how I got my first raise for 25 cents after literally 4 years of working for the same company.

      Much of industry is globalized nowadays and the global competition is fierce. For example, American companies often hold meeting that run late into European evenings and expect European workers who are required to attend to be fine with it. They often have no choice if they are service providers to some big company. I worked in Germany, and even though they supposedly have more government protection and rights work-wise, in reality, in the private sector you are just expected to work a hell of a lot of unpaid overtime and just take it on the chin. Often management just hand projects out to people willy nilly without really assessing the proper scope and time and resources required. Employees feel like they should be able to cope because surely if more people were required for the task, management would know this. Nah! Not that its easy for managers who are also suffering a lot of stress but many of them don't even understand the work their employees are doing, and have the mindset that the job is the same as it was 15 years ago.

In addition, there is no growth for a good girl like me. I was passed over for a promotion by a man who is younger and started two years later than me. He is black and I think he is the diversity token that our upper management thought would be easy for them.
