People are not accepting the flip side of this coin.
This is work we are talking about, not an idle pursuit or a mistress. Work is what pays the bills, and if I need to be on-call when I'm out with my wife, she should be able to accept it since if I was out of a job I wouldn't even need the cellphone.
Some of us earn our salary by being on-call, some of us want to be there when the company needs us so we can get promoted and earn more.
Hardly anybody is a workaholic just for the sake of being a workaholic.
It would be like calling a mother evil for attending to the kids when they want attention. You wouldn't do that would you? You would rightly chastise the man for wanting his wife's attention when the kids need it.
The same goes for the job that puts the food on the table.
