Agreed.
Are there people who really want to work at all hours? Maybe eager students right out of college.
Personally, I'm at the point where if I'm going to be working at all hours, I'd better be one of the primary beneficiaries of that work.

Too introverted to be really aware of their market value and have a life and smart enough that they're going to be obsessed with the work and work at it all the time. Considering I'm having a hard time finding "reasonably competent" Rails devs, I can't imagine how you might hire for that kind of position.
