I can also relate that pulling off all nighters at school tended to be at least a little rewarding. Either i was learning something interesting or building something cool but the similar calibre problems at work don't have the same allure. If I'm doing the same at work it either means work was incorrectly planned and now I'm expected to fix that, or someone else broke something unnecessarily and now I'm expected to fix that. It's just an entirely negative context to extra work now. I'm not really learning anything, I'm not getting paid more, I'm not getting a cool project out of it. It's just an accidentally (sometimes) manufactured catastrophe that someone with more money or power has declared is my fault or responsibility. I definitely do much better in academia
