In my time as a sound engineer, I learned to say no. Compared to sound engineering (as in, live sound engineer), being a dev is a walk in the park.
No more 16 hour work days, no more tours with getting only 6 hours of sleep each night. No stressing out over a technical issue 15 minutes before show time. I could go on and on :P
I am currently a Dev (used to be a sound engineer), but I can definitely understand that!
Yeah. Don’t burn yourself out on the job. No one will thank you for it. It can be hard, I still have problems saying no. Go figure.

Coming from a job where dev work feels like vacation. Sheesh. Good on you, man.
Edit: if you are a man. Shouldn’t assume really.
