Do you work on weekends?

@evan Technically, I don't have a weekend, but I always worked weekends last time I was employed by a company.
-
@evan I work a 7:30-4:39 weekday job but came with disclosed after-hours on-call work. My weekend work isnāt usually scheduled, itās per incident/crisis call.

@evan define "work" :)
-
@evan Rarely but I feel itās actually somewhere between rarely and often. I manage servers and have a leadership position so if stuff goes sideways I deal with it when it happens. Also, because I run servers, downtimes for updates are best done outside of business hours.
The important caveat is that Iām in a union (and my employer is a union) so my contract has very good compensation for weekend work.

@evan What type of works? Like personal non paid works like cleaning, yardworking, etc.?

@Chigaze I wonder, say, if you could maybe guess what percentage of your weekends are work-free.

@disorderlyf why do you technically not have a weekend?

@raederle why 4:39?
@evan because the 0 and 9 are too close to each other on my phone. I usually catch and correct but failed to this time. It was supposed be 4:30. However, I do have an alarm set to remind me to leave work. I snooze the alarm sometimes so it is 4:39 if Iām trying to finish one last thing.

@raederle aww, dang. I suspected that, but then I got excited thinking that maybe you had some interesting mental wellness practice that required exactly 21 minutes of stretching or meditation between finishing work and getting on the subway or whatever. š«¤
