> I've never gotten burned out from working too hard.

Me neither. I burn out when I'm working on something that I don't love working on (and things like feeling powerless or bad management can make it something I don't love working on). Not coincidentally, I also don't work as hard on those things despite all good intentions.

This is why the #1 requirement I have when I'm considering a job is that it is something that I will enjoy. That's more important than compensation or location.
