I am also going through the same thing. I have already asked my ND to find me a few days to just even fill in on another show. Maybe field produce for a day. Something to break up the daily grind. As of now, I'm still producing 20 shows a month on the same show. I also find myself hetting really angry when the day crew walks out the door at 6:30. I almost thing I should look to break my contract for an EP position. |

.....burnout should equal 'promotion'? I would ask you to figure out -why- you are angry when the day crew departs. Wish you were on day shift? Think you are working harder than they are? What are you -really- hungering for? If you think EPs are just burned-out show producers who found a way to move up, I am sorry to hear you are working with managers who don't deserve those jobs. If you are burned out doing a tough but ultimately cool job now- you will flame out fast under the pressure that mgmt faces, pressure the people out in the nzrm cannot even imagine, pressure that makes putting on a show feel like sitting on a beach with a pina colada.
