I feel exactly the same way.  I used to enjoy programming in college, but now it&#x27;s slowly turning in to an endless grind of new projects.  Finish one, in comes another.  I don&#x27;t know if it&#x27;s just me or my company, but I am definitely burned out and wouldn&#x27;t mind some people managing for once.  But then again, Carmack is an incredible man and engineer; I wouldn&#x27;t be shocked if he&#x27;s never burned out in his life.
