Workaholism leads to health problems, work addiction risk depends on occupation
I was a young grad student more than a decade ago. When preparing for interviews, a common question we prepared for was : "What are your weaknesses"I saw a lot of people confidently saying, "My only weakness is that I'm a workaholic". This was supposed to be a strength hidden as a weakness. Employers preferred new hires who were willing to devote themselves to work and had decided they were workaholic without having a single day of work experience."Workaholism is a trait" was drilled into us.
