The radio programm

In our last English class we listened to a radio programme in which the theme was"workaholism".The journalist interviewed some people who are work alcoholics and their testimonies were really impressive,I also found them a bit sad.It's really shocking to know that someone can spend SO much time working and that work can be the most important thing in some people lives.
In my opinion work must be a mean of earning money to buy things you need and want but not the most important thing in your life,it can't turn to be the center of your life.Your must work to live,not live to work...
One of the persons interviewed called Cristina was the one who most impressed me,may be because she is a woman as me.She told the journalist that she could eat while driving, and I make myself the question...how can anybody reach to the extreme of not having time to have dinner?most women cook to their family or if they have something else to do-as working-they at least eat with them,that really impressed me!She also told that she could past days without having a real talk-in which you really listen to the other person-with his husband,also an work alcoholic,that they would sit next to each other and send IM and emails and work without chatting!In the way my society works and who I was educated the same as my friends,the women are the ones who really takes care of the family union,who putts heart and love in a house...I don't thing that people who work so much can take care of such an important task.
Maybe I'm talking without knowing but I think that nobody need to earn so much money as to work all day and make job the center of your life.For me it's a matter of deciding and not having to be a work alcoholic.
