Can VS fleet type contribute to faster burn out?

I've heard from many pilots that long-haul flying can easily contribute to burn out and fatigue (for some people more than others). For those VS pilots who do burn out, which fleet type likely contributes to that burn out faster? Airbus offers more route variety but longer flights. I've also heard some 400 drivers say they got bored with the routes (even the sunny Caribbean) quickly.

Any trends in terms of pilot departures from VS or thoughts based on personal experience?
