I’ve been at my present job now for three years and although I have learned a lot considering I only had a very basic understanding of the business when I went into it I’m kinda feeling a bit of the old burn out with it all.
I know I want to stay with the line of work but to be honest I’m beginning to think that three years is my limit with a job.

Anyone feel the same or has felt the same in the past? What is your burn out limit or are you a work horse?

I usually get bored after 3-6 years.

I never thought I would be this long at my current position, Im going on 7yrs and yes it is time to move on for me, so hard though when your comfortable

I'm usually bored after one year, but I've been almost a year and a half at my current, and I'm doing quite well.

It always amazes me when people have been at the same job for 10, 20. . . 40! . . . years. The longest I've been in one place is about 3 years, and that was plenty long.

I expect that I'll stay in the same line of work for many years, but. . .it's hard to imagine staying in the exact same job for decades. I think some of us aren't cut out for it.

I am not bored but I am burning out and strssed out.

Trust me- knowing I am leaving in a matter of months is the only thing getting me through days like today.

You're a producer, right Milty? Do you just wanna produce something else/somewhere else or do you not wanna produce anymore?

I'm a saleslady and I've been one for 5 yrs! If I say may 'I help you'? or have a nice day one more time I'm gonna SCREAM!!

the former. my job feels like a job. it's starting to bore me with the typical office politics. i wish i could be in an environemnt that breeds creativity rather than the bottom line.
