Being tired at work is so normal now that it barely even registers. People say it in meetings. They say it in Slack. They say it while holding a coffee they absolutely do not need but are drinking anyway because otherwise their brain might fully leave the building by 1pm. Everyone is tired and "so busy." Most of us are one bad night of sleep away from forgetting why we opened a tab.
Yeah okay so if 66-74% of millennials and Gen z are moderately burnt out, that’s a goddamn systemic issue. It’s almost as though late stage capitalism in America might be collapsing and we’re the collateral damage. But I’m sure we can just vote our way out of it.
