You're a WORKAHOLIC if:
- If it frustrates you that they don't allow laptops on a Ferris wheel.
- If you are looking forward to Christmas this year because you'll decide to take that afternoon off.
-If you don't drink any beverages during the day because you'll lose time having to go to the bathroom.
-If a Pay-Per-View movie is your idea of a vacation.
-If twenty minutes is too long for a lunch "hour.
- If hobbies are something you will get into when you "get the time".
- If the only time you've had off in the last three years was to attend your favorite uncle's funeral.
-If you wish you weren't so stressed but know that you will feel better as soon as you "get over the hump".
-If the color of one side of your golf bag has faded and is different from the other side of the bag.
- If you promised your spouse "this is the only Sunday I'll work" more than three times in the last year.
- If you bring your spreadsheets to your son's football game.
- If you sense that the smiles from those around you are somewhat synthetic.
-If you've told yourself, "I can cut back of my hours anytime, if I wanted to" more than three times in the last six months.
- If you use your cell phone in the shower to return business calls in the morning before work.
-If you don't have a tan by July 15 each year.
- If it's difficult to remember the last time you heard background music at a restaurant.
- If you set your alarm for 2:00 a.m. and 5:00 a.m. so you can check your voicemail.
-If it bothers you that you are always at work before and after everyone else.
- If you can't name your daughter's favorite rock band.
- If elderly people tend to make you impatient.
- If people at cocktail parties seem to want to leave your conversation and "get another glass of wine" just when you were really getting into telling them about your job.
- If it's been a while since you felt guilty about missing yet another family dinner.
- If you carry family pictures in your wallet only to remind you what they look like.
- If you're drinking your coffee in a dirty cup from yesterday.
- If you haven't gone home early in the last six months.
- If your idea of an intimate anniversary celebration is to take your spouse to a formal business dinner.
- If a clown is not so funny, an owl is not so wise, and you think that Peter Pan cannot really fly.
- If the last outrageous thing you did was over ten years ago.
- If a three-year-old girl holding a fluffy bunny under her arm doesn't cause you to stop and watch.

If you can't change your fate, change your attitude.
Judging by the amount of hours I spend on Ql all day....I really don't think I would classify as a work a holic.

But being a workaholic is either a good thing or a bad thing.
Maybe it's useful to determine if we are. There is really no one thing that would make one automatically qualify but, the above situations may be symptoms that we are.
