Anyone work weekends only?

Published

I just had my second baby and am considering taking a position when I return to work working weekends only. The pay is great and I would be able to stay home with my kids during the week. The negative is not being home on weekends when my husband is off and I could miss a lot. Anyone work weekends only? What do you like/dislike?

i worked every weekend for years -- friday, saturday and sunday, 12 hour days. i loved it! would still be doing it if it weren't for the child and all of her weekend activities. when she goes off to college, i might think about doing it again!

I work weekends only, Friday 7p-7a and Sunday 7p-7a and I get paid for 36 hours, with full time benefits and 4 weekends paid vacation per year. I can choose to pick up extra hours through the week if I want. I have two kids and it works great with them. I don't have to miss any of the school activities through the week and I still have Saturday nights and Sunday morning and afternoon off.
