Last quarter I worked 55-hour weeks to hit a launch deadline. I was exhausted, but I also felt proud of what we accomplished. Now any busy stretch gets called burnout. Are we losing the distinction between temporary intensity and chronic exploitation?

I think they dovetail so often that it's hard to tell. Chronically exploited people go through periods of temporary intensity. Many such chases.

That sounds exhausting to me, definitely exploitation to make you work that much!
