That is just a fantasy, Reza and Marissa live in a fairy tale where working long hours equals passion. It doesn't.

I have had co-workers who practically lived in the office. Every time something urgent came up they would volunteer to work the weekends and late nights. Surprisingly the same guys were also known among the developers as people who got the least amount of work done. And while the management was initially impressed with their hard work and "commitment", every single one of them was let go in the very first rounds of lay offs.

Let me also add that when you are very passionate about something you may end up working long hours and weekends. You will probably also enjoy it.

But the opposite does not apply. When management expects you to work long hour you will not become more passionate about your work.
