So here I am answering a few forum posts and reading some articles that I didn't find time for during the week...
I was just wondering how many other people are using this or other sites on a weekend....or maybe even remoting into the office and doing a bit more (I'm not quite going that far this weekend!).

Well, since I forgot about Database Weekly, I am :w00t:

Ever since I started working from home I've found that weekends don't mean quite as much. It matters to no one whether I work on Wednesday and go shopping and to the library on Saturday or go shopping and to the library on Wednesday and work on Saturday.

I'm not logged in from home, putting in extra time, working on extra projects and especially I'm not cruising the boards at SSC... CRAP!

I'm using it over the weekend also, and sometimes happens that I'm reading SSC articles in an early Sunday hours (like 3 AM).
This just proves that "I have no life" :crazy: :alien:

As DBAs we generally have 'different' working hours. Lots of nights and weekends - especially for 'production support DBAs. So why would you find it 'odd' to be on SSC at night or on the weekend or both ?
I get Some of the best information from SSC on week nights after 11:00 PM, weekends all throughout the night. Sunday mornings are my 'special' time for Database Weekly.
This is in addition to my 'normal' weekday 'daytime' hours.
Oh, I reside in the US in the Central Time Zone.

I know I do, I'm always trying to learn something new. And even as much as I post solutions to other people's questions, I still get a lot out of other positions offered.

I'm quite usually more busy on the weekends than during the week. So I don't often get to hit SSC on the weekend.

Nice! Glad I'm not alone...It's a bit quieter on the weekends, but its cool to catch up on the articles...
I will say though that when my wife catches me typing away, she generally asks...."Are you geeking again?!".
