            That’s a lot, but nurses do more and their work is much more labor intensive. You never really hear about them being hospitalized for exhaustion. They just have messy houses because they’re too tired to clean.

              Burn out is a MASSIVE issue among health care workers.

              I wasn’t trying to make it a competition, just pointing out that she may have actually been exhausted. Especially since it’s not something she’s used to doing. Almost everyone else on Broadway has basically been doing it their entire life.

            I’m not willing to find dozens of articles about incidents like this where the PR people claimed “exhaustion” and the star later ended up going to rehab. I’m not a prosecuter, I’m an internet commentator. I suggest you take a chill pill. Don’t go overboard though or you might end up with exhaustion.
