Feeling overworked? You’re not alone. In fact, according to a vast majority of a recent survey’s respondents, overworking has become the norm in today’s workplace.

The survey, conducted by Wrike, found that 87% of workers, from business owners to freelancers, say they overwork on a regular basis. Perhaps the most surprising result of the survey is that even though that large percentage feels overworked, 42% of all the respondents still feel satisfied with their work/life balance.
