i just graduated from xray school in may, i got a job prn at a hospital where i did some of my clinical work, i was working about 20 to 25 hours per week because it was on a as need basis and about a month later i got another job at an imaging center full time, but i decided to work weekends at the hospital because they were the first ones to hire me right out of school and feel like i should be loyal to them, now my question now that between the hospital and imaging center i work about 65 hours per week but i feel like i need to work more, like if they offered me a full time weekend position at the hospital i would take it, would you consider me a workaholic, this may not be the right category to put this question but i know i’ll get the best answers from this one cuz you guys are the best

honest answers appreciated

SuVmOm asked:


How do you deal with someone that is a workaholic? I feel like I’m raising the kids on my own. He works 60-80+hrs a week and when he’s not at work he will sit on the couch and complain about being tired from work…until they call and then he has plenty of energy to go back. What do I tell the kids when they ask where Daddy is…again…and why he can’t make soccer practice….again…Thanks for any help!
Ok, so I didn’t expect the answers I got. I wasn’t complaining, I was asking for ways to talk to him about it. He actually took a $40,000 paycut so he could spend more time at home. So, yes, I am making cutbacks and spending less on myself and the boys while he is still working the same hours. And, no, he didn’t do this before we were married. I don’t complain about him in front of the kids or even to him. I was just looking for constructive things to say to him. Thanks

linda asked:


We dated for 7 months prior to breaking up for a month due to his work and how he felt overwhelmed with it and myself. We always made it work for those 7 months, despite how tough it was to see eachother. He came back to me after a month and realized he wanted me in his life and that he made a mistake, and obviously willing to make it work with me despite how much he travels for work. I hope it will work the second time around, but for the past two days, we have tried unsuccessfully to get together, due to his work changing at the last minute. How can I not be dissapointed? When I am with him, I feel like a princess, and I really don’t want to give him up. We are so compatible on so many levels. I do work full time and go to school and have activities to keep myself busy. I’m glad that he realized that he wants me in his life, but I just don’t want to get hurt again. Do you have any advice? Are you a workaholic or dating a workaholic?
Pearl: Obviously I know I am NOT a princess…I am simply expressing how wonderful he makes me feel. Why are people so judgemental nowadays?

Happy Face asked:


I started talking to a 36 years old and workaholic man. In the first date he kissed me and asks me to practice oral sex to him. I am very open mind, and I acept it. Can anyone help me with this? I don’t know if this was right. He saw me for a second date and nothing happened. I believe that he was expecting something else. He called me once after, the second date. Should I give up? He is a very busy and successful man. I don’t know if he lost interest in me or what was the cause that makes him stop calling me. I am very depressed, I really like him. How can you please a workaholic?

Nomatta12 asked:


Aight, personally I’m a workaholic 19 year old who has never been in any girl-friend type relationship whatsoever and virtually has no meaningful friends (just a TON of acquaintances). Otherwise, I’m basically devoted to my pre-med work.

My question is that why do I continuously get nervous whenever I have work to be done (getting a test back, about to take a test, about to give a presentation), yet I rarely ever do badly on them? I have taken tests for years, and I always get high marks, but every time I get work back I still feel as if I’m going to fail. Whats worse is that I vividly remember every bad grade I’ve ever gotten in the past 6 years. I feel this problem is hampering everything else thats wrong with me (avoidant personality, etc.), as I am constantly nervous about my work. As a result, I can’t afford to change myself as I fear focusing more on anything else will just make the problem worse.

Babygirl asked:


My husband is a workaholic. I am a SAHM. I have children with disabilities that I take care of all day everyday. I beg him to come home and he just always wants to work. I know that he isn’t cheating-for a fact believe me I have checked things out thoroughly. My question is how can I make him see, understand that I-his wife want my husband. I am lonely. I have done this for years and it’s just taking it’s toll on me. He swears I am the love of his life but he is so career oriented/driven. I just miss him sooo much. We don’t have babysitters. Family has too much on them so we are always with the children. I guess I just want my husband to WANT to be here with me and our children other than pleasing others @work. The more he works, the more they expect out of him. He promises me he will stop all the hours and spend time with me and the family. Am I being selfish for wanting to be with my husband? To just be in his arms and love him like a wife should love her husband. I miss him.
I am VERY proud that he works! The problem is the hours. It’s just hard for me… Money to me isn’t everything. Never has been. I just love and miss him.. I just want him to work normal hours so we can have time together.. That’s all. Just way too many hours.. Can’t you see-I actually love and want to spend time with him. I just want compromise that’s all…..
The problem is that he is DRIVEN to make it to the top of the company and will make it in probably 5 yrs or less. It’s just that he is losing us in the process. No we aren’t strapped financially. He is a WORKAHOLIC. I have spoke to him about this but he promises and promises and promises then breaks those promises. It works for about 2 weeks. We all just miss him. I’m sorry I didn’t mean to mislead-our children have disabilities that make it difficult in life but are not disabled. Everyone seems to think I am very pretty and am well kept. I do what a wife does. I didn’t let myself go. How do I get him to SLOW down long enough to enjoy “us” and our family? I am just stressed to the hilt!
