> I very rarely miss a family dinner, and I almost never work on the weekends. These are the perks of working for one’s self.

You don't have to work for yourself to do that; indeed I'd think it's a bigger risk when freelancing.

I have a conventional job; my boss and I both know what my hours are (they're written in my contract). I'd never miss an arranged dinner or work a weekend; I'd be amazed and somewhat insulted to even be asked. Is this really something normal over in the US?
