Aside from two friends/fam in nursing and two in teaching, what I got is too much time on reddit and TikTok. My impression from both is burnout/quitting mostly workloads from attritioned positions being saddled on the remaining clueless until they can’t take it anymore.

I’m an info worker and underpurpose was definely the cause of my own burnout. But I still get the impression that I’m in the vast minority.
