But you're not working for free then. You just feel like you are. I
am a salaried and exempted worker (House of Commons staff, unionized
or not, must work to operational requirements which may include
weekends) and yet I wouldn't say I ever work for free. I will in
fact be working four hours on Saturday (my idea) to assist in meeting
operational requirements.

Managerial staff work until the task is completed. When I was a
manager, I got in early and often didn't leave until very late. I
didn't find it satisfying, not to mention exhausting, so I returned
to my previous position after nine months.
