My father was a workaholic who climbed into a log truck when he got off his job at the mill because that was his hobby. 

A supervisor I know takes all the overtime he can get because he's recently divorced and would rather be around coworkers than sitting in his apartment. 

One of my friends works overtime because she's a single mother with three kids. 

Another lady I know sleeps like 4 hours a night and always comes in a couple of hours early despite making plenty of money. 

My sister's husband works all the overtime he can get because they spend a lot of money buying new stuff and going on trips--it's what they like to do.

Why I have the impression you didn't mention a single healthy (in both socioeconomic and biological aspects) person? Except maybe your sister's husband 

Working too much is hardly sustainable. There is a reason why more developed countries stabilished laws limiting the amount of working hours weekly/monthly to their citizens
