There are only two types of people: those who work on week-ends and those who don't.
What's your choice?

I don't work formally on weekends, I only check quickly online campaigns results. There can be sometimes ad accounts errors or something like that.

@sergul_sungur1 following ad campaign results is quite engaging. I'm often impatient to check them every several hours (even though it's absolutely not necessary)
There are more then 2 types!
I personally shut everything down from Friday afternoon until Saturday evening or even Sunday morning. Those 25+ laptop-free hours really allow me to regenerate, rest and come back fresh and ready to dive right back into work.

@ireteh it's a rare thing for a CEO. Glad that you're able to have this luxury!
@daniel_engels It shouldn't be! +this weekly "reset" enables me to come back full of energy and new ideas. Try it for a month and let me know if it worked for you :)

@ireteh I don't always work on weekends. And when I do, I don't necessarly feel it as a hard work - I have the luxury of getting some exciting stuff to do.
Report
Yeah, whenever I can. Priorities are family and friends but any downtime I try to get through a couple of bug tickets or tidy up tasks.

@andrew_isherwood1 it requires lots of motivation and discipline to do such tasks on weekend. Bravo.

@daniel_engels you're certainly right! I find if you can force yourself todo 15minutes, it can quickly turn into an hour or two.
Once or twice a month I'll spend a Saturday morning focusing on creative work. Usually something that's been on my mind for a while that I want to get visualised.
It's always been deep focus and fun, and arguably some of my best work.
There's definitely a calming no pressure aura on the day. Love it!

@leojbarnett nice to hear that you've performed well when doing what you love
Quite often, yes, and in all my jobs. And I have never been paid for that overtime. Let me elucidate… I love to work, and I love my job. Working overtime and on the weekends doesn't bother me when I have to do it. The most important is to remember to keep the work-life balance.

@amelia_charlie glad to hear that you're fulfilled with what you're doing.
I often work at weekends. I find it's the best time to do "deep work" when the team and our customers aren't needing anything, when I don't have meetings or any interruptions. I often do my most creative work for SupaPass at the weekend!

@julianameyer I also like to reserve weekends for creative tasks that require concentration.

Hi, @daniel_engels I used to work on weekends. Now, I don't work on weekends and I am glad I have time to focus on my skills and learn new things during weekends. What about you?
Report
@tanya_kapoor I often work on weekends. Either I have something rather exciting. Either I have an emergency to finish before deadline.
Form me, it depends on the definition of "work". As a developer I'm "working" on the same stuff as I would do while doing my job in the office (developing software), but more in hobby projects - not on the same projects which I do in my job.
But stuff I've learned from these hobby projects will find their way into my work projects. So yes and no (chose "I work on week-ends, occasionally")
