I respect you and your work ethic, even if it isn't for me. I do have one thing I'd like to add a general comment on, even if it doesn't pertain to you: > I don't force my team to do the same (and they don't). For anyone who does work at all hours, before and after the traditional workday, I would just kindly remind you to be cognizant of the messages you send to your team if you're firing off emails and sending other work products every other night at 10pm and every morning at 5am. While you don't mind doing it for yourself, and externally you tell everyone you don't expect the same, it does begin to put informal social pressure on everyone else. This is particularly true if one or more employees start responding/emulating those odd-hour communications, out of drive or a sense of unspoken obligation, which pushes everyone else into a "I do this but you don't have to [but really you should wink wink]" situation. Even if people don't match behavior, it can lead to stress. In short: be aware of the pressure your behavior can send irrespective of your words, in light of your position of authority.
