What's troubling? A culture of working over 40 hours? Or the fact that some people choose to?

Is it your perception that our culture is moving toward working more hours?

The trend appears to be downward. Yay?

I believe that working that long isn't sustainable and I think that it puts unrealistic expectations for the average person. I would welcome your trend. Thank for the data.
