Well I am over working girl so much and almost dealing stress everyday but I love working so much and I can't stop it.When there are times that I got a day off or something then I still look for some job so that the time will be wasted.Are you like that too?I mean making the time gold so much.Sometimes me and my fiancee argued about it because i really don't care about my self anymore and I know that it is bad but I am trying to adjust.So how about you?Are you super job girl or boy? THanks for the response.God bless and have a nice day..:-0

hii, i have to say i like my work but i am not a workaholic person..it seems that u can be working all the time under high pressure or stress..are u sure that u keeping u busy doing things that u really like to do? even if u love to do them, u should take some rest and care enough about youself in my opinion..Lifer is not all about working...sometimes u need to take a trip or watching a movie ...or just have a talk with yr close friends to relax...i mean..its not a kind of wasting time but ways of making u more energetic..u are a nice girl..take care and have a nice day!

Wasting time doesn't mean working without rest, there are better things than just working all day long and also anyone need some time to take a breath or can easily get sick or stressed. I enjoy spending time with my girlfriend, friends or my family; work is important but not that much.

well, i am a workaholic person if the work is interesting...I am into designing stuff and there was once a job for me to design posters and booklets, i worked 24 hours for 2 days straight and got the job done... I know working like that is not good for health..but i cant stop it but when it comes to boring work...i would normally procrastinate till the end

I am definately a workaholic. I cannot even think of relaxing if there is something that needs done, and even if it seems as if everything is done, I constantly look for more work to do. I guess I am like this because if I am busy, I feel like I am being productive.

I can see that you can become rich easily because you are so much indulging yourself at work.Life is so hard nowadays and we really need to work so hard in order to attend to our needs and also of the people depending on us.But too much work and no time to relax at all is really not good for your health. You must also find time for the persons around you. It is not the money that they need but also your time being with them.

I don't have a job outside the home, but being a stay at home with 2 kids, 2 dogs, a hamster and a husband. I sometimes wish I did have a job, at least their your given breaks, time off and vacation time. I'm always on the go, only time I get, I'm online trying to make some extra money for myself. With my husband working nights, I do the things around the house that doesn't require noise, then I try to vacuum at night before my kids goes to bed. This week, I will finally get to clean my house I like to without having to disturb anyone. My life is like the movie Groundhog day, I get up at the same time, I do the same things and I try to go to bed around the same time. Then I get up to do it all over again, oh joy.

I just put in my 40 hours a week at work and that is it. There are more important things to me in life than my job. While the job does pay the bills, that is about all it does for me at this point and the insurance. I had a lot happen that made me come to appreciate life more outside of work.

I used to be a workaholic person.The time that we have to earn for the education of our three children.We have to work day and night.I did not know the word "rest" those days when we are on bakery and grocery business.I didn't realize that I was killing myself in doing so much work.It was good all of them had finished their chosen careers before I had my first heart failure.Now I have to slow down and give time for myself.It is important that we are always in control of ourself.You should always take your time to rest.

I'm definitely not a workaholic person. I hate working, even if I'm working with something I love, simply because it's called 'work.' I understand how people can enjoy it though - it does keep them busy and relieves tension. For me personally though, I would rather sit down and do nothing rather than work. Maybe meditate or just think... that always makes me feel better. Besides, if people are always too busy working, then they never really have time to realize all the changes that are going on around them.

I am like that too. I like to do something or the other during all my waking hours.And if it is something that i like i can go on and on.It is not bad really, not if you are doing something that you like and are enjoying doing it.It also helps you keep fit, except may be when you spend too much time on the net :)

I think I am a workaholic. I always worry about money :( so I try to work as much as I can. I don't mind because I get to use my laptop at work.. Like I am right now. But I do think I work too much because I also am a full time student as well .

I love to work and would do everything to make every second to be productive. I am no idle and I hate idleness. I however to not work to the point of sacrificing my time to rest. I believe all work and no play make one a dull girl so I do work and I love to work but I also give myself the necessary break when needed.

I am definitely not a workaholic. I believe life is too short to worry about working all the time. I think it is more important to enjoy what you do, come home and relax, and spend time with family. I know money is important, but it's not the most important thing.

Hi, Insulin, Nice to meet you here. Same with you , i am also a workaholic person. We can gain the satisfy and happiness from my job. Also, if my work is not favoring, maybe i am not happy and puzzled in it. However, most of time my work is favoring, so i gain much from my recent job.
