Work is a core element of our lives.It gives us a sense of identity in the larger world outsidethe personal circle of family and friends.However, there are some people for whom work occupiesan even more central place in their lives.Workaholics are a stereotype of modem life, and they areboth praised and criticized.On the one hand, it may be the accepted way of earning promotion.Onthe other hand, workaholics are often viewed as neglecting aspects of life such as family and leisure
that are important for maintaining a healthy equilibrium.
Andrew:
In cities, workaholism is so common that people do not regard it as unusual.I think workahol-ics prefer to work rather than do anything else because they don' t know how to kill time if theydon't work.They can only get pleasure from work.Work is everything for them.
Colin:
Workaholism is dangerous in a sense because it can cause some problems.First of all, worka-holics often have health problems because they don't have time to relax and keep themselves occu-pied all the time.Secondly, their family life is not happy since they spend little time with their fami-ly.Their marriage may even ends in divorce.
Vincent:
Being a workaholic can mean you achieve great things, but more people achieve great thingswithout being addicted to work.Workaholics need time away from work and when I say "awayfrom" I mean psychologically distanced from it as well as physically.If you are still obsessing aboutwork when you should be focused on your loved ones or an outside of work activity then you are stillbasically working.
