It is also unsustainable. If your job expects you to do that, someone has a wrong idea of how the world works (but it is more likely you will get blamed when things go wrong, rather than the person who had the wrong idea).
If I were in your place, I'd look for a job that respects my off-time. 24/7 is acceptable (if compensated) once a month, maybe even once a week in some cases - but definitely not every day, and definitely not 365 days a year.
What do you do on vacation? On a plane?

You generally get a fair amount of weekends off, but it makes planning difficult, etc. 2. This is reality for a LOT of white-collar jobs today (wall st., lawyers, consultants, etc.).
