Working Weekends

10 Jun

Weekends to the worker bees holds a magical place of promise, turning off your brain, enjoying the short break of 48 hours thinking of sweet nothings, taking in the full two day work detox… until you have to work on the weekend and you feel like everything you were taught in college is being tested.

Though working on the weekend is no one’s favorite thing to do, I’ve come to realize that working a couple hours on Sunday can have lasting benefits. For starters, no interruptions. No phone calls of urgent work due EOD, no one trying to schedule meetings, and no one to talk about Miley Cyrus’ engagement ring with. Just me and my research. And that alone guarantees productivity. Plus, I’d rather get in a few hours of work on the weekend than constantly stress about how much I will have to do Monday, which is a weekend buzz kill on its own. SO one measly hour, max 2, leads to less work and stress for the rest of the week which, trust me, is much healthier than screaming at your laptop on Monday mornings for being too slow and not giving good search results. So even if you have to talk yourself into it and keep reminding yourself of the benefits, work on a weekend can actually be more rewarding and not so bitterly annoying. After you survive work on the weekend you will feel like Harry Potter surviving Lord Voldemort

With that, I’m off to get in a couple hours of work…
