Top 10 signs you're getting burned out on your support tech job
Overview
Ever wondered what happened to that can-do, users-are-god, I-exist-only-to-serve-you attitude of your early days as a support tech? Maybe you're suffering from a touch of burnout. Becky Roberts put together this slightly skewed list of symptoms to watch out for.
We all have good days and bad days at work, but when the bad days seem to be escalating, it could be time for some R&R. IT pro Becky Roberts knows what it's like to get a little maxed out on the job, and she offers this send-up of some possible indications that a break is in order.
For instance, telling a user that his problem lies somewhere between the keyboard and the back of his chair might be a tip-off that you need a little rest. The same might be said for prioritizing work orders according to how annoying the user is instead of by business need.
Check out her complete list and then see if you can add a few of your own.
