#2I had a job that became way too easy as time went on. It broke me in unexpected ways I'll likely never recover from, even more than a decade later.

Powerful comment.
I am trying to understand more behind those statements.

I know what you mean (I think).
That's probably the main reason I left what was otherwise my best job. I knew that if I stayed longer, I'd never be employable anywhere else, both because I'd have stopped learning, and because I'd have grown too comfortable/scared to move.

The other problem with an easy job is the boredom. If you are in office or even remote but present, remaining engaged but bored for 8hrs/day is torture.

#10> It’s no good nursing your private resentments for years, while telling your boss once a week that everything’s fine, and then suddenly walking out on them.
Strongly disagree with this point. Your departure should be an enormous shock to management, otherwise you've just spent weeks or months mouthing off about work to them, they've not fixed anything and indeed might even have lined up your replacement already.
