You absolutely can give a shit and work all kinds of hours. The only important thing about working hard is logically analyzing a problem, implementing a solution, and presenting your work appropriately. Sometimes that takes two hours, sometimes it takes thirteen. If you say, hey why aren't you solving more problems then on lighter days, then that sounds like some jerk taskmaster dictating a rate rather than someone concerned with solving problems.
