Poo management. If work can’t be done in a work day, it’s just poor management.

I'm upvoting this for the typo. Never change it.

Heh. Alright. I’ll leave it and take my lumps.

That typo is pretty damn accurate TBH.

Mobile. Ugh. I didn’t even notice.

This ultimately has little to do with management and far more to do with people actually caring about what they're doing and wanting to get deliverables finished

Wouldn’t be rushed to get deliverables finished if it wasn’t a management issue.

I literally am one of these people. I work on weekends and late on weekdays because I genuinely want to accomplish what I'm aiming for. My boss literally does not care if I ever even log in if I don't have a meeting, because she knows I am going to be accomplishing things without her input, direction, or motivation.

I'm sure you've had a real shitbird boss or five. We all have. But that's not why professionals generally work hard. You don't get to this level if you aren't passionate.
