Weekend Work

I was just wondering how many other professions spend most of their weekend working - essentially unpaid.  I do all my marking and preparation in the evenings after the kids have gone to bed and usually when marking season is upon me carve out time during the day on weekends where husband occupies kids and I do marking.
It mostly sucks because it means my freetime is actually spent working.   It isn't just me being inefficient - apparently it is a real problem with all Uni lecturers now.  See the link here which is more or less on this issue.  And it is worse for us casuals.
Oh well I should probably stop blogging and instead get back to marking and writing up next week's work.
