#1 is a poor lifestyle choice. #3 is poor self control and spinelessness in negotiating working schedule.

  Not everyone has the skills and leverage to negotiate a schedule that actually suits them best. In most employee/employer relationships, the employer has far more leverage to dictate work schedules and conditions. Being in this situation is caused neither by a lack of self control, or by spinelessness.

    If you’re in a tech role, it’s insane. Unless you’re getting paid some crazy premium amount or have other handcuffs like a contract or defined benefit pension, there is no reason to stay.

      A lot of the decisions humans make aren't reasonable, as in there is no reason behind them, they are emotional.

  #1 Not all choices lead to valid solutions given a set of constraints, this can lead to non-optimal solutions. #3 I personally see the reality that knowledge work and life blend a bit more at the edges than traditional factory work and can accept the need for work outside of the standard hours . It's the existence of this adaptation in working time alongside the other issues I highlighted that makes it a problem. We're in the middle of changing work and these are teething issues. I find your reply overly simple, inconsiderate and from a place of privilege.
