I’m 47. I quit my career in 2018 and my husband quit his in 2019. We couldn’t be happier! I’m a trail maintainer at a park and he’s an unarmed security guard. I don’t get paid vacations and he only gets one week per year. We can’t afford to go anywhere Instaworthy but we have plenty of things around us to see and do. We have health insurance, we each live within 15 minutes of our jobs, and our work stays at work. We enjoy what we do on the clock and we have lives outside of work. The nuclear physicist that lives next door quit his career two years ago and is a full time woodworker. His wife left her job at the bank and cleans hotel rooms and likes it cause she can see the results of her work. The couple across from us are 27 and 30; they both work from home and when their contracts run out they just get new ones with another company. They live here because it’s lower cost of living than where they came from so if it takes a week or a month for one to get a new contract they don’t have to worry about losing their house or starving. Neither likes what they do but they only do it for a few hours a day and have the rest of their time to enjoy life, which mostly seems to involve hanging out with their friends or redecorating their house.

Persistent burnout isn’t the norm. I believe you that you’re surrounded by people experiencing it and I think a lot of millennials and gen X were raised to aspire to that (myself included). And it’s crap.

Think of whatever activity or environment you like; there are jobs available. Career variety is at an all time high.

I have to agree with this, because I don't know anyone who feels persistently burned out by their jobs. Annoyed at/frustrated with their job at times? Of course, who isn't? But overall, everyone I know either likes their job or finds it tolerable enough to not be actively looking for something else.
