I read that Americans in the 1980s used to mock Japanese for working excessively; but now they became the Japanese.
Also, there is another side to this; I notice that people with crappy personal life outside of work use work as distraction. They don't feel or see any meaning outside of work so they derive meaning from the latter instead.
If someone want to work more hours, fine, but don't expect the same to others.
