Burning out and quitting
For me, I've started feeling like I'm close to burnout. But quitting doesn't really seem like a helpful option.Could I actually take months off recovering? No. I'd have to immediately start leetcoding and remembering what all those trees are for so that I could become employed again later on. And risk having to take a job that pays way less than before.Which brings me to my main point: I don't see an option where the work ever actually truly ends. There's always more. Always things I need to be doing. And until I have enough to retire, I have to keep grinding.Vacation doesn't help. It just puts me farther behind.
