I know many. Maybe if enjoyed my job, it'd be different. But even then, its just a job.

    I ask this because I know plenty of "P" workaholics and plenty of "J" workaholics.
    I've gone through bursts of workaholism. They were due to the fact that I needed the money for something; most of the time, for a later period in which I knew I would have worked less in order to do enjoyable activities like biking, travelling, lying on the beach doing nothing, surfing. Other times I've been a little "studyaholic" because I liked very much what I was stuying. Those are the only motivations that come up on the top of my head. I also have a job that is very enjoyable in comparison to most of others, probably a dream job for a student to have.

    I've always been a sports workaholic, but that's not work. It's fun and makes you feel good.
