Dude is burnt out in 6 years? I've been doing it 25+ professionally and still love it, started as a kid writing basic with the line numbers.
what's your mailing address? we're sending you a gold star and a cookie.
Cool, how much of your 25 years was to "write test automation to test the front end" full time?
This guy is in his 3th job after 6 years - so job-hopping every 2 years (as per the current programmer-job-meta. - ) trying to find the right job that fits him - but obviously he hopped into a disaster of a job. Its a personal anecdote of his experience so far.
If you have 25+ years of experience, but you can't relate at all to what he's experiencing, then this guy already has more experience than you do
