When I was a DB2/IMS developer in the early 90s, we did work some long hours but most development work now is done offshore.  We have architects and SMEs that answer questions and assess code so it goes back and forth a couple of times.  Was a manager then stepped down to be a Project Manager.  I don't have those long days anymore either.  I have to occasionally work a weekend when we have a software load but that's not very often.  They are trying to start getting more out of us by combining roles/responsibilities.  Hopefully 3 1/2 years until retirement and won't care what they do!</blockquote>
