Informal survey before I make a fool of myself in an article (again)Do you get the feeling that IT people, especially ones at the top-end of the field, are too reluctant to ask for help?
I don't mean technical help, I mean with stuff like burnout, depression, etc.
I keep seeing it locally, the belief that we have to be superheroes to work in the field, must be able to work all-nighters, heroic long hours, don't take time off sick, never admit weakness.
Local thing, or more widespread?
Widespread.
I don't know if it is trying to be a superhero or just the thought of not getting it done - especially in crisis. But it does apply to more than just a crisis situation.
