Am I ambitious or workaholic?

Jane Marple asked:


I use to justify my behavior by saying I’m just ambitious but now i’m starting to doubt my reasoning.

1. I work 50 hrs a week
2. I get very antousiastic when I talk about my work
3. I can not take a day off or a vacation without feeling guilty
4. I think the world will stop turning if I’m not at the office
5. I eat at my desk while working
6. I think about work while showering, shopping and in bed
7. I fear weekends…to me they are boring and a waste of time
8. It’s been like that for 3 years (i’m divorced)

I have a week of vacation scheduled for next week and I am stressing over not being at the office.

What in the world can I do to stop that non sense?

Why do women want to marry a rich guy and them complain that thier marriage sucks, because most of the time if you marry a Lawyer, doctor or any high salary job then this person will morer than likely be a workaholic or never be home. Is there something out there that makes them think it will be different form them or do they just not care and are money hungry?

ViA asked:


He’s a Neuro-Surgeon and Cardio Vascular Specialist and works sixty hours to seventy hours a week, not to mention most weekends, which does not leave much time for me and the kids. When I complain, he argues that he’s doing this for us and I’m being ungrateful. I would admit, we have a very luxurious lifestyle and everything. The only thing missing is him. How can I convince him to pay attention to us?

To be labeled a workaholic, how many hours of work a week makes you one?

snailpassion asked:


Is there a problem with working the majority of the week? I enjoy what I do and wondered if I am spending too much focus on this aspect of my life? What is a good, healthy ratio of relaxation to work?

Hard worker VS. workaholic. Why might YOU like to be described by one term but not the other? ?

Helper asked:


Denotation refers to the dictionary definition of a word, whereas connotation involves the associations that accompany it. Consider these groups of words smiliar denotations but varying connotations.

I am SO CURIOUS to hear what you guys have to say!!!

Bebopatop asked:


I have known this guy for 5 years, we dated on and off for about 1 of these years, but it was very casual. He travels for work a lot and can’t commit to anything. We make plans and then he cancels because of work. Why does he keep contacting me if he still doesn’t have time for me? This has been going on for years and just when I think I am over him, he texts or calls. He hasn’t dated anybody else either. Grrrrrrrrrrrr!

Is there any reason for Dr. Seward’s being so workaholic? Could it be that he was trying to get over Lucy?

Satan’s Sidekick asked:


My boss told me today that I am more of a workaholic than he is. What is wrong with moving ahead?
My boss tells me that I have the telltale signs of a workaholic because I always arrive at the office before anyone else ans sometimes stay until late at night.
