Just so you are aware, this is not a luxury that many jobs outside of tech affords. My previous job gave me way more than 8 hours of work to complete in a day and was completely tone deaf for years about widespread morale issues(insurance adjusting for a company who’s spokesperson rhymes with Bo). So I went to a new company, doing a similar job and they give me what they think takes 8 hours but usually really only takes me around 4-6 hours. My point is, some companies will just work you to death and others are either naive or compassionate(probably naive). You need to find the naive companies to work for unless you want to get taken advantage of.

I once had a job working in a 90 degree warehouse taking boxes out of boxes and putting them in other boxes. 8 hours on the dot. Clocked by the minute. Everyday. To this day I don't take for granted being stressed out working "overtime" software projects.
