[quote=Anonymous]OP here and I really appreciate everyone’s responses. I do need a vacation. In the past three years I’ve lost 10 weeks of leave because I never feel I can leave my work behind. So I guess I’m not really half-assing. I’m pretty burnt out, actually. I’m working very hard on the things I’m good at, which have firm deliverables and strict deadlines (e.g. proposals, contracts, and reports), but I’m not developing in areas I don’t enjoy (e.g. cultivating wealthy donors about to die). The latter is what my organization needs right now and it’s just not me. But it’s true I’m getting paid to do this job, not the one I want. Maybe I’ll feel better after that vacation. And I’ll keep looking for a new job that’s a better fit.[/quote]
