Real load or perceived, if your job is causing severe mental attrition then you need to do something about it. The answer is simple: handle it if you must, get out if you can, but in any case evaluate your situation critically and discuss it with superiors to bring about a change. However, the discussion needs to be in the spirit of problem solving with not the slightest hint of emotional disturbance. You must demonstrate that you understand the corporate condition and are a good corporate citizen. Sit on the same side of the table with your boss. Your aim is to understand where he or she is coming from and what flexibility he or she has while you explores solutions. You do not want to raise concerns of dissention. Rather, show your interest in improving performance. Offer creative solutions or programs such as offshoring or retraining. On the other hand, if the boss is exploitative then you should not be in the organization anyways.
