When a company gives you Sat. and Sun. off, they're doing it because it's the normal thing to do -- it's not even a decision. When a company gives you Friday off, they're doing it because they've calculated that it will enhance their business somehow. If you come along and decide to treat the day as if it were a normal day off, you're missing the point.
It's like if a company gives you free sodas, it's not the same thing as a Coke van on campus giving out free twelve-packs, you're not supposed to load your backpack full of sodas every afternoon when you leave work, just because they're "free".

Telling me to go home so that I can be well rested is a detriment to how I generally work. The question revolves around whether it's my time or it isn't. If it is, then why put constraints on it? If it isn't, then tell me. Either way, I believe it's a fair negotiation, honestly, I'd just like to know where the actual boundary is.
