Unpaid overtime, what jobs require it? /deem it normal?

So teaching sucks, one thing I hate is how normalised unpaid overtime is. It is very common, to the point they spell it out during training; that part of being a teacher is taking work home! And yeah, the odd bit of marking and report writing… once in a while, sure. But it now seems that it's very much common practice to employ teachers for full time and think it's fine to be expecting us to take work home regurally, 5 plus hours a week. What are some other jobs where you peeps find this happening? I'm guessing this might be far more common than I think in other proffessions too.
