Marital question...

I am a bit of a workaholic.

Enjoy doing a good job at work, enjoy pleasing our customers. I like going the extra mile to make folks happy.

But my family has apparently suffered.

So much so that my wife has said she will likely divorce me unless I change jobs so that I have a regular 9-5 type occupation.

Is that an unreasonable request for a spouse? I have the best job in the world right now, but my spouse does not like my employer or my job. In fact she hates my employers.

Any input from over here??? I worry that if I go back to a 9-5 job, it may end up being 7 to 7 and the spouse will get all upset all over again. How do I not be a workaholic?
