      Have literally sent work emails from the back of a cab on a highway with roundabouts. I may have a serious problem.

    Hi, my name is ynthrepic and I’m a workaholic.

    I have one of those jobs where holidays just mean double the work when you get back. None of the work goes anywhere, and there’s nobody else who can pick up the slack.

    I actually love what I do, but…

    I work in the public sector, and do heaps of unpaid overtime, to make life better for people who don’t understand the only reason we don’t do a better job is because the government keeps cutting our budgets, claiming it’s because we don’t do a better job with the money we were given the previous year.

    We also do regular restructures which reduce morale and stoke fear, but the only people who lose their jobs are low level workers, or they just remove vacancies and claim savings on those, while moving middle managers sideways and not actually improving efficiency.

    My job gets harder, I end up making more mistakes or have to cut corners to make shit happen. I complain I get in trouble. I have a kid.

    I’m so fucking glad though I don’t live or work in the US. Y’all are so fucking fucked.

    if it’s a portmanteau of work and alcoholic, shouldn’t it be “workoholic”?
