The blessings of workoholism
You are never bored
and never out of work,
you never lack good entertainment
and you always are kept busy.
In brief, it only imports blessings
never to be able or to have to stop
and never needing any rest,
to always have something ahead
both to look forward to
and being able to postpone,
as it is said:
He has something to look forward to
who has some business to postpone.
It can be also used as some way of escape
for the evasion of fatiguing travel
and dull social duties,
like exhausting tiresome and noisy parties
to instead be kept alone in peace.
These blessings make your wages less important
since no salary or gain is higher
than the satisfaction
of a finished and accomplished work.
