Working Saturdays and maybe Sundays works once or twice a year.

Then you get to the next week completely unmotivated having had no rest and feeling like crap

Tuning out of work is needed

Just a note, not all people are wired the same - some people are very good at working long hours and 7 days a week. I've done it at times, and my brother has done it to an extreme before.

True, though "being able to" doesn't mean you should.

Also there's a frequent confusion between "working longer hours" and working more (might not be the case here)
