Is it wrong to do work on a Saturday?

January 27, 2007 7:19am CST
I am sitting here about to start doing some coursework, but can't help but feel that it is morally wrong to be doing work on a Saturday. What do you think, should i do some coursework? or watch the football on the TV?

I don't know what your belief is but i don't think any wrong working in saturday. If you are working for good then you can't possibly be doing anything wrong.

Well, it depends on how serious your coursework is to you. I think the more you put it off the worse it'll be for you.

that is very true, i did eventually do work, and actually did quite a lot. Would still rather have spent the day watching the footy though

It's perfectly allright to work on Sturday.I think Sunday you are not suppossed to work that is the common belief.What if some urgent work comes up you have to do it no other go you need to be flexible.

Do what you think is right. These days, people have time constraints, so they have to do things on the weekend that they wouldn't normally do. Some people work too hard during the week and need the time off on the weekend. So, it's really up to you, and maybe those that would be affected by it (spouse, kids, etc.).

That depends, if your religion or your belief forbid you to work on a Saturday, then its wrong. I myself work on a Saturday, If only I have a job on a Sunday Ill work too.

Nothing is wrong with working on any day who is to say that you should not work on any day? What will happen to you if you work on Saturday or Sunday just work and make your money or relax and enjoy the days that God has given to you to enjoy.

My husband usally works on Saturdays. So it isn't that big of a deal. Unless I want to go out of town. Then it is a big deal. Besides I have to work 7 days a week. Someone has to clean and cook. And that job falls to me!

To me Saturday is just another day, just means the kid is under foot the whole day. I clean, do work on line, everything I would any other day. If your religion or beliefs go against working on Saturday then you need to ask yourself if you should but if there isn't that limitation I don't see why it would be a problem.

Is Saturday special to you.That's not wrong to commit yourself to work on any day because it's your life.You just rest whenever you want as days passing.I work half day on Saturday.

i think its ok if we work on sunday but we must work after church i think its a sin if we work when the church is on. for christians sunday is the day we ask/get blessing from god.

Working a Saturday is just like working any other day except it's Saturday. Go to work, do the job (at time and half), go home. Used to work a 12 hour swing, worked every other weekend, Friday, Saturday Sunday. Not a big deal.
