TOO much work

...yup... your not alone ... all of us had to work hard every day and sometimes double our jobs to sustain the flow of food on the table... just remember that STRESS is also working hard to put us down.

You will break down.But the Japanese are crazy or is they are workaholics. They work more thank 12 hours a day. Anyway you have not defined the sort of work you do every day. if it is hard labour then it is not good for your health. It will soon weaken you and hence become old on time. However, for office work, some sit by the computer many hours.

That is a lot of work, but I bet your pay cheque looks amazing at the end of the month. I rarely work 12 hours in a week, since I work part time on a 8 hour contract, so most the time I get 8 hours, but I have worked a 30 hour week once.

I don't work as much as you do but it's the like of it. I work 10 hours in a government office as an employee and I work part time for 5 hours being a telephone English teacher. I enjoy this schedule from Monday to Friday since I'm thinking that if I don't have other work to do, I'll just stay awake 'til late at night watching movies on the television. But of course, I reserve my weekend for relaxation and time to spend with my family. So I don't make appointments in the weekend. :-)
