July 26

was flipping through the Cleo magazine and...just how true is that!?!

Do you live to work or work to live??
The number of hours that many of our generation put in at the office would have been unthinkable for our parents. What makes this slavish devotion to the corporation even more scary is that many men's primary measure of success us how much they earn for what they do. For them, achievement at work equals achievement in life. (guys out there: is this really true???) This kind of thinking manifests iteself in 60-hr weeks, Saturdays in the office and a bizarre sense of hard-core pride at having pulled all-nighters.

If he manages to squeeze in enough time for a date or two with you, get used to the fact that you will always be seond on his list. In fact, the part of the mistress will be played by you and that of his wife will be occupied at office.

Should you view your career in the same life, more power to you. I hope you guys will be very happy together scheduling dates 2 weeks hence in your Palm Pilots.

Should you be a person who works to live instead of lives to work, do consider yourself warned. This man has clear priorities at the moment and impressing his boss is far more important than doing likewise with you.
