How many here are workaholics?

[El_hefe]

I've always been a hard worker but turned it off when the whistle blew. Now, 30 years in to this field I have recently become a lazy fuck too, no reward for stressing out about the job while half of the people around me phone it in or don't give a shit.

Yeah.... I've got a bad attitude.

I thought I was a workaholic, but after reading what some of you guys have written here, I'm starting to doubt that self-diagnosis.

I suppose if you love what you do it doesn't seem that bad..

"Modern Capitalist Slavery"

Yup.
Day job and then 2-3 consulting jobs on the side.
Never a dull moment.

3 jobs, but one is online and working towards that bringing in enough to live full time in Thailand, so it doesn't feel so bad.

Working towards your own future certainly feels better than working to build somebody else's retirement, if you know what I mean..
