I Am a Workaholic

Not by choice. I wake up at 5 am and get home not earlier than 5 pm most days. Last week was worse. After dinner, I work again. At work, we have to be positive and smile and sugar-coat everything we say, so that we project an image that everything is shiny and healthy. Today, I lay in bed the whole day unable to get up. I was thinking of ways never to wake up.

MrW888, thanks for asking. I have asked myself this question so many times.
Fact is - every job here is like that. I have been in this job for close to twenty years.
I teach. But here, it is not just teaching. It is administration and a whole lot of other
things. I have thought of leaving it but have not summoned the courage to throw in
the towel.
