Taxi & public transport drivers are going to have a hard time following your advice.

Have literally sent work emails from the back of a cab on a highway with roundabouts. I may have a serious problem.

if it's a portmanteau of work and alcoholic, shouldn't it be "workoholic"?

[–] letsgo@lemm.ee 11 points 5 days ago (2 children)

More to the point if "addicted to alcohol" is alcoholic, why isn't "addicted to work" workic?

[–] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 5 days ago

yes but then it's not really a portmanteau anymore

Because language isn't completely arbitrary, but it is weird.

Language can be weird sometimes, but... it's not exactly brain surgery, is it?

[–] baggachipz@sh.itjust.works 3 points 5 days ago

That’s tight butthole

[–] ynthrepic@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

Hi, my name is ynthrepic and I'm a workaholic.

I have one of those jobs where holidays just mean double the work when you get back. None of the work goes anywhere, and there's nobody else who can pick up the slack.

I actually love what I do, but...

I work in the public sector, and do heaps of unpaid overtime, to make life better for people who don't understand the only reason we don't do a better job is because the government keeps cutting our budgets, claiming it's because we don't do a better job with the money we were given the previous year.

We also do regular restructures which reduce morale and stoke fear, but the only people who lose their jobs are low level workers, or they just remove vacancies and claim savings on those, while moving middle managers sideways and not actually improving efficiency.

My job gets harder, I end up making more mistakes or have to cut corners to make shit happen. I complain I get in trouble. I have a kid.

I'm so fucking glad though I don't live or work in the US. Y'all are so fucking fucked.

I want to retire to Majula too.

I’m sick, I can’t work in projects, I feel this meme.
