When I was a Ph.D. student, I went to school around 9:00. I have to teach classes most morning. I will still be in the lab around 1 or 2 pm. When I was a post-doc, I usually went to school at 9:00 and back home around 8:00. As a PI, before I got my R01 and a dog, I went to school around 9:00 and back home around 10 to mid-night. Now, I go to school around 9:00 and back home by 7:30.

similar in my lab, sometime people work till 7:30 or later, but usually they go home around 6pm my work schedule is 9-7. if you work till 10pm everyday, you are super and I believe you will be an outstanding scientist.
Exactly! Even a resident who works 15hrs/day get more moonlighting than a postdoc salary. Not to mention the base. If you are not working for a better life quality, are you willing to work at the expense of family time and your own health? What a trashy job! May well start a small business and probably be richer and happier. Realize that less than 10% of postdoc eventually become PI, that's lower than gambling on a stock. Why not enjoy your life while you can and leave this odd suppercompetitive circle as soon as possible.
