@jpsteichen Update Jim: in the 2nd Trump Presidency, ChatGPT is now more than happy to help, though it doesn't help the quality of the puns. Personal favorite: "Pas de Don't".

@lauriesantos @JonMalesic Some is cultural but I think maybe we can manage the burnout we bring on ourselves by: a) identifying the feeling to ourselves and managers as burn out, b) finding things you can "let drop", c) managing expectations & say no -- not necessarily easy, but maybe some tools we have?

[Brendan Gotch @brendangotch]

@lauriesantos @JonMalesic Hey Laurie - *love* your show and how actionable the research is. The burnout episode, as a result, left me bummed. I was recently burnt-out and think it might come again, and have some ideas about dealing with it, and also would have loved more than "it's cultural - good luck!"
