Same here, burnout definitely results in waking up multiple times a night and the first thought going through my head was about some work related BS. Idem waking up anxious before the alarm, cluttered with work BS thoughts.

It always did boil down to having no agency over the outcomes but being made responsible for them, and my warning of the idiocy/likely failure mode of the plan being ignored.



Yes - "no agency over outcomes & being responsible for them" is quick recipe for burnout


It’s SOP in many companies in my experience :(
