With all earnestness, I see where you are coming from.

I guess I just don't understand why someone just starting out would be so concerned about work life balance. When someone sends you an email over the weekend, that's an opportunity to show your initiative and highlight your responsiveness. At least it was when I was his age. It's not a mental health assault. Careers may not be the entirety of someone's identity, but especially for young people just starting out, I would have thought it would at least be an important part.
