Last of the Workaholics

Breaking news
the new generation
has cured that
dreadful disease
which afflicted most
baby boomers

Indeed
workaholics
are a thing of the past
mind you…
they’ve been replaced
by game-aholics
but let’s focus
on the positive…
workaholism is cured
and a thing of the past

My deceased Mom would say"work never killed anyone." I know some want a life of no work and no pay. Let's see how this turns out. I have known NO workaholics. People I knew did everything they could do avoid it. Liked the poem Panagiota

I was a workaholic... not too many left now. It might be a good thing.
