If I get a new product manager, for the first few sprints they join I make sure to stop work at 5PM, and not do any work on weekends. This sets the pace at which I will be doing work.
I probably should do more in pushing back in too much assignment at the beginning of a sprint with new PMs.
As I get to no them more, I might work more hours if needed, but it is hard to get back to the idea of working five eight hour days with no more points than can be covered in that time if it is not set up front.
