Work on Saturdays

Who has to work on Saturdays around here? I do and it sucks. Having to get up when you know most people get to have a play day. This time of year I have to work almost every Saturday. Being self employed I try to work about half of them the rest of the year. Happy Saturday no matter what you are doing today but a special happy Saturday to my fellow weekend workers.

 

My dad works on Saturdays, but only till 11 or noon.

 

i often have to go into lab on saturday or sunday to monitor my experiments or set something up for monday. i hardly ever go in for more than an hour or two, but it's still pretty difficult to motivate myself to go in early, and i end up not going until night time.

i have to go today and probably tomorrow.

 

I'm working today and tomorrow (half days) but all my overtime is voluntary.

I like having the option.

 

I mostly work Friday, Saturday, Sunday, normally have college classes in the week. IRS not ideal working on weekends. But I deal with it. Normally go in at 11 get out at 7 latest w close at 6 but closing procedure Leads us to get out later.

 

Ahwile ago the only work I did was on saturdays. Since I was free the rest of the week I saw little reason to complain about it

 

I work 2 out of every 6 weekends. Yes it does suck.

 

I'm self-employed and work Saturdays only when I want to. But the work I do on Saturdays earns me a pretty substantial amount of money so I don't bitch about it much. It's not like anyone is forcing me to go do it.

 

I used to work 9 am to 1 am every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. At the moment I have these days off.

 

My religion does not allow me to work on saturdays.

 

I would say working weekends is a pretty normal thing for most people unless they have government jobs. I work every other weekend, and this weekend happens to be my weekend to work. But I don't go in until 11:00 tonight.

 

Pastafarian?

 

Birdolicism.

 

Isn't that more of a cult?

 

I can assure you that over here in the Netherlands working on weekends is not a pretty normal thing for most people. Mostly for teenagers and students to earn a little extra.

 

A cult means that there has to be more than one belieber.

 

Depends entirely on the kind of work, mate! I know lots of adults as well who work on weekends. Especially self employed people so it seems but also factory workers for example.

 

I work Saturdays. I do it all the time. Today I started at 7am. So not only a Saturday but damn early, too. Plus I cycled to work (30 minutes). The shift lasts 12 LONG hours.
I think I win.

 

Well, I should have said that the big majority of people I know don't work on weekends.

 

So, three people?
