    With my new job i pretty much work everyday, my new job is based at home and only leave to see clients. Excellent setup as i have as much time as i need to finish work, not just standard hours of a work day.

    Every second weekend for me either nights shift or day shift on the up side to 12hr shifts I get a 6 day break every second week. The roster I work I only have to do 14 days out of 28, 7 weeks leave a year.

    weekends are when i do most of my work! lol...dont really have the time as much during the week studying so i only have one or two shifts through the week.
    on the weekends i usually do evening shifts too....so for the last 2yrs or so ive pretty much worked every saturday and sunday night/evening - usually something like 2:30pm till 10pm or 12pm.

    did have 2 jobs there at one stage myself, had to suport wifey poo, daughter, put wifey poo threw tafe and monkey pants in school, worked mon-fri as a apprentice electrician, then on weekends sat and sun 10 hour shifts working and caring for disabled adults. not glamour work, but it had to be done. payed the bills, did that for 2 yrs.

    look back now it was hard work, beats me how i did it. but it had to be done, and there was no point in complaining. now fully qualified electrician on some good coinage. cant complain.

    work weekends every now and then, depending on what the day calls and whats needed.
