Workaholics? Check.

According to a new study by Men's Health Magazine, and published by WebMD, my city is the most overworked "in-need-of-a-vacation" city in the country.


Bravo, Manchester, bravo. (you can read the study here, here, or here)


Summary: We are a bunch of workaholics who are overstressed with high blood pressure and long commutes and desperately need a vacation.


But what I want to know is why the subtitle is "Where men work too hard"?


Ummm...what about us working gals?! OK, I'll cut them some slack since it IS a men's magazine. Just know that it SHOULD apply to both genders!


On the brighter side, my reporter friend noted that Men's health also says Manchester men are in great physical shape, have great credit, and meet lots of women for fun dates. So, it's not all bad.


Vive La Manchester!
