Burnout is a symptom of exploitation but not all burnout comes from exploitation. You can burn out from non-work activities like caregiving. You can burn out as a business owner or a member of a worker-owned co-op. You can burn out at a job that only expects healthy hours because you're an overachiever who refuses to take time off.

I have found it's just as easy to burn out doing what I love as it was doing a job I hated.

Easier in some ways, because I don't want to stop!
