My boss wants me to work overtime and on weekends. He is like my happy days are over and I should constantly be overworked and brain drained. He makes me guilty for not staying back after work hours.As a PM the work I do everyday is mostly about solving problems of the project which is time consuming and brain draining. I am exhausted by end of the day and cannot put more hours daily.
Also I am amining for a carrer change and preparing for masters. Therefore I do not have more time outside office hours.

How can I tell my boss that I cannot work more that I have now ???
