• If you've ever woken up in the middle of the night to a call, you've probably thought that the worst had happened. Even the most emboldened workaholics usually refrain from calling their coworkers or employees at 3 AM, both because they don't want to disturb their slumber and because they don't want them to freak out and think a crisis is afoot. 

  Not all emboldened workaholics care about their employees sleeping 8 hours or keeping their cortisol low. Some of them are willing to call their employees and family members at the crack of dawn over a minor problem. The boss in this story is one of those workaholics. 

• Am I the bad guy for telling my boss to apologize to my wife?
