On the other extreme, 24/7 operations have redundancy.
A friend of mine explained that being an Emergency Medicine physician is a great job for work life balance, despite the fact that he often has to work ridiculous shifts, because he never has to take any work home with him. An Emergency Room is a 24/7 operation, so whenever he’s at home, some other doctor is responsible for whatever happens. So he gets to relax and never think about work when he’s not at work and not on call.
And we’re all mobile users now. I know a lot of people who play mobile games on their couch within arm’s reach of their console controller.
It scratches a different itch, but it does have real substitution effects in the real world, even at home.
