My question is who doesn't get burned out from working for someone

else. It happens to all of us I would guess, some more than others. I work for mostly smaller to medium size companies and the longest time I had was 10 years in one place so I change as the companies come and go and better opportunities come along. So I have not gotten to the "burned out" point I don't think. But I am 50 now and there are many days when I say I wish I did not have to go to the office that day, would rather be doing something else.... but I have bills to pay and a retirement to hopefully fund
