Man: I love my new job so much, I've become a workaholic!
Man: I think about my work twenty-four/ seven! How about you, Thorny!
Brutus: I'm strictly an eight/five type of guy!
Workahol is distilled elbow grease with an OH bond connected to it (as in OH boy, I have work to do!). Alternatively, for workahol with a head on it, try fermenting the elbow grease with union made yeast. (Thatâs like, OH, I think I have work to do!) (Wait! What am I talking about? Donât ask!)
We need more Thornapples in the world. 8/5 makes a lot more sense, allowing time for family, God, and friends. Back in the 60âs we sang a song that started out, âSlow down, you move too fast. Gotta make each moment last.â I wish we could go back to that.
i donât know if iâd hang out in a bar with people that wear hats like that when it isnât even halloween or st. patricks day. even the old âamos ânâ andyâ ball cap on backwards/sideways thing is getting passeâ
Workaholic, just as bad as alcholicâŠmy old boss was addicted to his crackberry and ended up losing his wife and kids over it. Heâd be up responding to emails at 2am and when he couldnât stop working and she never saw him, she figured why not leave him for someone whoâs around moreâŠshe was okay with some over time but being married to someone who was never around, is as bad as someone whoâs always passed out from being drunk.
There is help for workaholics, problem is society doesnât really see workaholics as being a bad addiction when it is.

Workahol â Texting, six email accounts, three cell phones, Facebook, twitter. Throw them into a blender, puree for six seconds, thatâs workahol.

What I donât understand is if he is a workaholic, 24/7, why is he in the bar?

You are absolutely right! I should have given credit to the great Simon and Garfunkle team. And âFeelinâ Groovyâ was my favorite of them all.
