Overtime is usually paid on a curve with about 20~25% per hour more for regular overtime, and 50% for sundays and special days (from memory). That’s just not worth it for many people. I too wouldn’t give away a weekend for that money, considering I’ll be in a zombie state for the next two weeks and would probably straight get sick and waste many more days in paid leave depending on the timing. Even the money I’d spend to compensate for the stress could burn through the surplus. It would of course be a different proposition if I was someone who could work for weeks without any impact, I know some people fit the bill, just not me. PS: Forgot one of the most important aspect when you have family: is your overtime pay worth the time you’re not spending with them, especially on weekends ?
