Uh, yeah… Having been both homeless and starving, I’m going to keep working to avoid those fates from occurring again. You do you though.
It’s a stupid meme, don’t take it seriously…
It is indeed a stupid meme
The best part is you can quit any time you want.
I’ve quit several times!
I quit every single weekday!
Teied that quite a few times, always end up fucking my life even more ! Truly an addict here. It’s like I need it ro survive.
The last time I quit, my boss called me the next day wondering why I didn’t come to work. “I told you yesterday I fucking quit because you never listen to me.”
Listen. All you need too do is have a near death inhabitating health emergency and you can retire in your forties and then maybe live another twentry-forty years on a fixed income.
Shits simple dog.
I worked so hard for so long that I’m like this and it’s awful.
When I get time off, I don’t know what to do with myself. Right now I have a full time night/ weekend job and I’m attending university with 5 courses. This summer I’m considering picking up another job because I won’t know what to do with myself.
Are these work addicts or realists though?
Just took five weeks off work on paid sick leave. Best thing I ever did for myself.
That’s not a work addict. That’s a wage slave.
Huh, i’m a full on addict it seems.
Fell off the wagon again, fml
Definitely saved this one for my addict friends.
that sounds exactly like legitimate work addiction
Yes…but there is such a thing as a work addict. My father is in his eighties, hasn’t had to work in decades, but still works like more than forty hours a week. I have no doubt that if he stopped, he’d be dead within the year.
My wife is also a workaholic but she’s the equivalent to the alcoholic that wants to stop drinking but cannot. She just can’t help herself to the point that she’ll turn her own leisure time into a job.
I used to be the same but heart surgery and cancer cured me of that bullshit.
Sorry to hear about your health problems, but happy you were able to switch off as a result.
One psychologist one told me that addiction is when you do it 8 hours a day
*Clocks out one minute early.*
Alternatively they be like “You got to be hardcore and be willing to put in 18-hour days just like I do!”
Are you really that dedicated if you’re working less than 28 hours a day?
