I don't know what's worse, the fact that I work 70-75 hours a week or the fact that I absolutely love it...😢

How many years in

Same here. Love it despite the fact that the hours are nuts. When I tell my friends and family, they somehow expect me to complain or be miserable, but I'm fueled by how much I enjoy these projects. Most of them anyway.

Why is it sad in any way?

Curious how many years you guys have in ....

Love it now, while you have the time, inclination, and energy! Maybe you'll love it forever, but most people have to adjust the balance later on in life.

PWC1 5 years for me. I think it's sad to be stuck in a job that you hate, especially if you can't change it because of financial or other circumstances. I'd much rather do long hours on something I love.

2 years for me so maybe I'm still in the honeymoon phase!
