10 Signs that you work too hard!

*I copied from Readers Digest*


Here are ten signs that you have become overly focused on work:


1) You refer to your child's pocket money as "the weekly cash injection".

2) You refer to your grandfather's death as "a family downsizing".

3) Your spouse complains that you do not take enough interest in the children, and you say, "OK, fine, where's the feedback form?"

4) The message in the Valentine's Day card you write to your spouse has bullet points.

5) Your son eagerly informs you that the kid next door has a shiny new bicycle and you tell him "The quota for capital expenditure is full for this financial year".

6) You go to school for a meeting with your child's teacher and your first question is, "So, what are his core competencies?

7) You think of your Sunday afternoon family walk as a "team-based bonding activity".

8) When your child's teacher explains that your child is failing four of his nine subjects, you shout "What do you expect when you give him such an over-diversified portfolio?"

9) When your daughter announces that she is getting married, you ask her whether she is ready to "undergo such a major paradigm shift".

10) Before making your speech at the reception, you ask the bridesmaid to take minutes.
