2There are some people who actually enjoy work.In fact,they love to work.They spend many extra hourson the job each week and often take work home with them.These workaholics are as addicted to their jobs asother people are to drugs or alcohol.In some city centers,workaholism is so common that people do not consider it unusual.They accept thelifestyle as normal.Workaholism can be a serious
