stress: burnout

"Burnout involves physical and emotional exhaustion, cynicism, and a lowered sense of self-efficacy that is attributable to work-related stress." For most that I personally know this is more popular for those who live in the city than in the country side or elsewhere. For example, New York is a fast pace city where everyone is on the go trying to make a quick, fast buck, or constantly busy doing something for their company or whatnot. They feel the pressure of deadlines and living up to standards of what society expects of themselves. People who live in smaller communities tend to be more easy going and tend to appreciate their surroundings and comforts of home.
