    I work every Sunday. I rather enjoy it. But then I have a lot to do, taking care of the monkeys, so it isn't at all boring.

    ... but boss behind me.

    So then he probably knows you are wasting time on the internets.

    Worked most Saturdays all my life until 2008. Averaging 50 to 60 hours per week.

    Accepted a new job and decided OT was not for me. Haven't worked a Saturday since March of 2008. OT is rare.

    i used to work saturdays. It was not great. but, there were good things. It was relatively slow. So I wasn't busting my *kitten* from the moment I got there until i left. Because I worked Saturdays, I got a 4 10hr day shift, so that gave me 3 other days off. it got me out of going to some kids parties and stuff.

    but i don't work them much anymore, and i am much happier. But now I have a child and my schedule fits with his.
