Working on weekends.

In the nature of my job, we sometimes have to work on weekends and most of us don't want to give up our weekends because we have already set our dates/appointments/dates on these particular days of the week. How about you? How affected would be of this kind of schedule and what suggestions would you have to avoid it?

I used to work in the retail business and I had to work some weekends. I didn't mind it in the winter but in the summer I hated it. We like to go camping and fishing in the summer. So after a few weekends in the summer of working, I quit the job. I'm not telling you to quit yours, I'm just telling you how I handled it. I didn't need to work so we depend on my wages. I was only working for some extra money for my own spending money.

I have to work every second weekend, and for the past 2 months, we've been so short staffed that I have had to work most Saturdays, so I seldom get 2 days off in a row any more, which means I just don't get a chance to rest.
