Couldn't be doing with working a weekend. I've been at current job for 9yrs and thankfully (apart from moving over here) I've never worked a weekend. Suppose I wouldn't mind it if it was a job I actually wanted to do.

Same. At my old place we had to work Saturdays but got a day off in the week, so still just did 5 days. Although I did quite often do a couple of hours overtime at the end of the day (especially on Fridays and Saturdays) if there were lots of customers, but we got the time back in lieu and I enjoyed the job. I can't stand being here so I do my contracted hours, no more. Would say no less but Nowadays I tend not to make time up when I have to leave early etc 
A couple of weeks ago my boss asked if I would work at the weekend - I said "don't be silly" He goes "don't get me wrong, I'd pay you", I said "even so, there's no way". Plus it happened to be the weekend that Billing was on, so at that point I had plans

Marketing assistant. I do our layout for printed media as well as online, which I love.
I also handle all contact with suppliers and 19 shops nation wide in regards to our various campaigns. This I fucking hate.
Half a page done, 11.5 to go...

That sounds quite cool. Can't say I'm immensely excited by marketing, but each to their own

Usually don't mind it. I've got a pretty good arrangement and can basically work when I want, as long as I get my stuff done.
Working one weekend just means having a longer weekend later. We want to go to London later in the year and working 5 hours this Sunday and Saturday could potentially pay for that.

True, which is fine if you'd get paid for it. If we stay for extra hours on a weekday we don't get anything.

That's because you're some kind of workaholic weirdo who hasn't sent me a reply since 9:24

Our marketing coordinator has what is likely the most boring job in the world, to me. Sitting around crunching numbers and persuading everyone to use their money a certain way. Couldn't do it!
The creative part is fantastic though and as it makes up 75% of my time, I can't complain.
