Have you ever skipped sleeping over a video game? Computer game designers
often create interesting video games to tempt players to keep playing. These days, many

employees are found to play video games at work even though their employers have set
rules to stop them from doing so. In fact, video game addiction is regarded as harmful, just

like addiction to drugs, alcohol, or gambling, and should be treated with care.

In the workplace, addicted players are often seen as lazy, not sick; their bosses are

not sympathetic to their addiction. If they have been caught several times playing video
games at work, their salary may be cut, and even worse, they may lose their jobs. In some
companies, the addicted players are allowed to play video games only on stressful days, but

their bosses will check their computers from time to time to make sure that they are doing
their work. However, while some companies continue to find some methods of preventing
workday playing, addicted players still have their own ways to enjoy playing video games

during working hours.
