It is going to vary by profession and the person doing it.
With that said, all professions have a cap on how much you can do them and adversely affect you in different ways.
Manufacturing jobs are brutal on your joints.
Manual labor such as construction and auto mechanic are brutal on your entire body.
White collar jobs abuse you mentally and are harder to leave at work.
Now with all jobs you may be “on the clock” for 40 hours but you won’t spend all that time actually do your job function.
When I was in construction it was wild how much time was spent doing random shit that wasn’t “construction “.
Now that I am in IT it is equally amazing how much of my time is dedicated to not doing IT shit.
My sweet spot is fewer days and longer shifts. I currently do 4 10s and I had one job that was 3 12s one week and 4 12s the next. That was awesome.
