Burnout

People who are very passionate and find great personal identity through their jobs are highly susceptible to burnout.

Seven common characteristics of individuals experiencing burnout:

1. Feelings of apathy toward others who are seeking sympathy
2. Physical and emotional exhaustion
3. Feeling irritated with your co-workers for little or no reason at all
4. Feelings of isolation in the workplace
5. Bureaucratic mechanisms inhibit your ability to perform job duties effectively
6. Feelings of overwhelming pressure from superiors to succeed
7. Experience little or no time for planning or for doing an excellent job
