I do have to agree on one thing, if you like your job, you don't watch the hours tick down to 5. I am lucky that I always ended up working jobs that I enjoy doing. But I also know, that this is not true for many people where a job is just a means for paying rent and groceries and do whatever job they can manage to hold on to.
I mean, I've also had jobs I loved and would go back to work for free if I won the lottery.
But I would still clock out at 5 and not answer the phones on weekends. It doesn't define me, I have other priorities to put above it.
