[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some people really just like working a lot, or they are obsessed with making more money, or they don't actually like spending time with their family and make work the excuse. Some people's situations and choices limit their options. If you live out in the burbs and work downtown, your commute is going to eat up a lot of time. If you choose to work at a law firm v. government work, you are expected to bill and maybe put in lots of face time. Other people don't have much of a choice. If you're not the boss or very high-level, you don't set your hours. Some jobs don't allow telework or flexible hours. So, people work long hours for a variety of reasons. [/quote] I would also add that culture adds alot to this. If your boss (or everyone) it seems is working late, then you feel pressure to as well. [/quote]
