I work with people like you everywhere I go.

They're not smart enough to understand and therefore affect their circumstance. Their greatest accomplishment is that they still have a job, lol.

You are the Peter principle. You are fatigued from being asked to use a brain that isn't capable of solving corporate web dev and relaxing. It is instead tired of trying to solve what it considers 'complex stuff'.

If something is still complex about placing buttons and text on a screen after 15 years - you're not smart enough to do it!

Try switching into management, testing, anything else where brain use is severely limited and largely not needed. You'll feel a great sense of relief.
