It appears no one really works 9-to-5 anymore.

A new study from CareerBuilder, found almost 2/3 of American workers think the eight hour work day is a thing of the past.

Half of those surveyed say they check work email when they're not at work and more than 1/3 say they work well after traditional office hours.

One out of five people say they think about work until they fall asleep and more than 40 percent wake up thinking about work.
