I work weekends, holidays, nights, days.  My schedule changes every month.  I only worked 7 days this month because I had vacation.  Last month I had weekends off.  Next month I will also have weekends off.

i aaalways work fridays and saturdays, but
i'm very lucky to have sundays off! it wasn't
always like that, especially in retail. but i have
a set schedule now and though it can be annoying
at times, it's certainly better than feeling like a
jumping bean every week trying to keep on top
of an ever-changing schedule.

I am kind of required to show up a couple days in the month during the weekend. I usually put in about a half day each time, but I don't get paid extra. At least the commute is better during these times.

I am currently unemployed because I moved to help my mom and sister out because they are both disabeled and I was looking for a job and my car broke down and my sisters truck broke down so I have not got a job.  But before I moved I worked weekdays and weekends and I wanted weekends because they paid more per hour and being a single mom of two I needed the money.  I miss working and having my own money. I want to get me a job now and I am trying to get this car going so I can.

I work every other weekend at my job.

I am a caregiver in a group home.  4 men/boys live there who need assistance with all
aspects of their daily living....  bathing, dressing, meal preparation, meds, etc.

The house is staffed 24/7.  I work day shifts.  Weekend shifts are usually 12 hour shifts.

i work in healthcare but for the past 3+ years my position has not REQUIRED weekends -- occassionally I have worked a weekend day or a holiday to observe what really happens (i'm a supervisor) when we aren't there!  :)  weekends are often somehow "different" than M-F.
But being a wife/mom I of course always work at home on the weekends!
