Was just talking with an older colleague about this. Work used to end Friday afternoon. The amount of emails I get (and send) over the weekend means there is truly never any off time.

reading and responding to those on the weekend is your choice

Yeah that’s a privileged point of view. You lose clients if you aren’t responsive enough.

Yeah that’s a privileged point of view. You lose your job if you aren’t responsive enough.

It isn’t, really. If it’s the expected norm in your job then there’s a real chance you’ll lose your job if you don’t do it. And particularly the kind of jobs market we see today that’s a real risk.
