How often are you working sundays?

Just saw the thread on Sunday scaries and from the responses, it looks like most people have their Sundays off on a normal basis. Current analyst at a strong BB coverage group and find myself working a majority of Sundays with the occasional radio silent day and occasional 9AM - 3AM grind.

Curious to see how many people on here are working Sundays. FWIW my firm has a strictly enforced no-work Saturday policy

I rest on Sundays but some of my friends rest on Saturdays or just grind 24/7 and then go buck wild for days at a time

Think a lot depends on when you or your employer takes sabbath if they do at all

 

Same boat with protected Saturdays that are generally respected.

I usually clock in 4-10 hours on the average Sunday. Not usually constant work/grinding, but enough stuff going on that you at least have to be near a computer which kind of makes planning impossible. For my teams, seems like the 6pm-midnight window feels like a usual work night where everyone is online. Usually a few random things pop up throughout the day but generally pretty quiet until the afternoon/night. Have had one Sunday that was a full fledged workday (10am-2am) and a handful with 0 work in my ~6 months.

 

Good way to put it. Even on days I’m grinding until 2 on Sundays it’s not a constant grind necessarily. 100% impossible to make brunch plans with GF or go out to workout even

 

Hopefully you get a Sunday off every now and then. That extra day off is a game changer…
