So I'm at work. It's Saturday :

I already worked 50-60 hours this week.

I'm sure it's not just me. Who else is having a busy kickoff to 2013? Normally this isn't something we need to do where I work, but it can't be avoided currently. Too. Damn. Busy.

Who else?

Not me, but my wife is working an extra 8 hours tonight after her original 12 hour shift today. Dat 8 hours of incentive pay....good lawd!!

Lot of people unemployed. Lot of people overworked.

World doesn't make much sense to me.

 

[Curtisaur]

I'm on call, does that count?

 

[Ryaaan14]

I work every weekend.

 

[cajunator]

I work every other weekend on my shift. Its not too bad once you get used to it.
Friday becomes just another day of the week (and for me monday is a good day)

 

[Prowl]

I work a lot of Saturdays, it's always good getting some overtime pay.

I'm with ya buddy.
They took my training wheels off at work, so I'm on my lonesome at our IT desk now on weekends...of course, today is the day everyone decided to have Citrix connectivity issues. Not a great start.

 

[XenodudeX]

I don't work at all!

Wow, I just got home after working today after a 55 hour week. Things just need to get done :/

 

[Bururian]

I work 36 hours across Fri-mon usually. I hate it. All my friends work Mon-fri. I never get to see them.

Be thankful that working on weekends is an "unusual" situation for you.

Us public service folks have to work weekends all the time. I only get 1 full weekend off per month.

I work 6 days straight, then get 3 days off all the time.

 

[GoldenEye 007]

Just got home from work! 9pm-6pm today then 12-6 tomorrow. But my department requires one to two weekend shifts a month with days off during the week as compensation.

So I had Friday off and I'll get next Friday off too, which results in a 3-day weekend next week.

4 of us did an office move for one of our business customers today

Took from 9am to 8pm. I'm so tired.

 

[Silas Lang]

Working this weekend as well. The shifts are much shorter than they are on a week day though so it isn't really tiring. I need all the hours I can get since I can't work as much this semester.

 

[gwarm01]

Posting from work right now. I don't mind because I get paid extra for working weekends and evenings.

 

[zchen]

worked new years, gonna be working on mlk day

 

[dekline]

I work Mon-Sat next week.

Gotta make that green.

 

[MikeE21286]

I feel bad for you guys/gals that have to do it normally.

I guess it's understandable if you're working a schedule that's not your traditional mon-fri 8a-5p schedule. Still hate getting those weekend shifts.


Also our IT department has that "on call" setup where some of them need to be available as well if there is an issue with products on jobs (sales, applications, payments, etc.)

Sucks.
