Do you love your work ? How many time will you spend on your work? If you think about your work every minute or everywhere? Do you have a hard time leting of work or even when you be forced to play and sing. Do you think you are a workahoic?

i think that i have recently become a workaholic. i wouldnt have classified myself as one until now too..lol. i write for my local paper and i have been writing for some websites for money so i feel that if i dont work, i am not going to get paid. i work totally at home with the exception of covering a story somewhere out in the field. so i control the amount of work i do so i think that from this, i work more than maybe i would in a different type of job. i enjoy writing so it isnt really all work for me. i think if you enjoy what you are doing, it isnt necessarily being a workaholic in the same sense as if you just work and work just to make money or to prove a point.

i don't think i am a workaholic,coz on my duty i seldom overtime.haha, and i still a student, i hope i am a workerholic and got my boss praise in the future.maybe workerholic means you are like your job and enjoy your job.you spend all the times you have to do the job,but it means you spend little time with your lover/friends/farther and mother.

I am not a workaholic in any way . I hate when something has to be done and I have to find the time to get it done instead of doing something I would rather be doing . I find it hard to get up the energy to do something I know I should be doing but can't seem to find the energy to do it . I enjoy relaxing with my children and can get a job done when I have to but would never be the kind of person who stayed late at the office or wasn't home on the weekends . My work would be with my children and they are more important to me then anything else that has to get done during the day as I know that one day I will look back and want to realize that I didn't miss the time I had with my children because I was doing something else instead .
