Hey friends,are you a workholic?
Definitely,I enjoy who I am when i'm working.That's part of the true mentality.I like working while enjoying.Work will give one a sense of satisfaction that he cannot find any other kind of activity.Besides that,You may have a sense of achievement when you finish the work in due time and reviewing it.
So what about you,friends?Are you a workholic?

yes i am. i enjoy "enslaving" myself at work. more work makes me happy not only because i love my job but moreso because i always want to be useful at work. i tend to become irritated if i have nothing to do for 2 days straight. fortunately, it hasn't happened to me in a long time.

I use to be a workaholic but since I have gotten sick and disabled I have learned what I can and cannot tolerate, to much work and not enough rest makes me ill.

Hello dear xiaojing. I think that I am somewhat a workaholic because once I start to work and get myself deeply concentrated in it, I always hate to leave my work until it is after meal time that I have already ruined my used-to-be very good stomach. Now I am trying to take good care of my stomach by trying to work overtime when it is time for meals. Thanks for your discussion, dear xiaojing.

Perhaps workaholic is not the right word to describe my passion for work. I just do love to work and am a perfectionist. I work to the best of my ability and want the best results out of it. I also work long hours but I know when to stop and how to give myself a break.

Hi
I think I am not workholic. But I enjoy my work and do that sincerely and with satisfaction. I like my office and my work and its atmospere. I feel satisfaction and enjoy others say that I am doing a good job and they are benefitted by my work and all. I like to continue to work like this and involve my 100% while I am working but I don't like to spoil my family life for work. I always try to maintain a work life balance.
