But you wouldn't even go out for either of these jobs because they both have weekend requirements. OT and weekend/holiday pay shows that THEY also value your free time - they're offering to pay a premium for you.

Eh I wouldn't consider $51.50 an hour valuing my free time. Mental, physical, and emotional health is worth way more than tha.

Then these jobs wouldn't interest you. I have the option to do weekend work for additional pay. My job doesn't affect my mental, physical, and emotional health significantly. Sometimes I have better things to do and nothing will make me come work on a nice weekend. Sometimes it is the decision between making extra money and playing video games for half the day, or playing video games all day in which case I'd rather work. Tho my weekend hours are usually 6am-noon. I still have half the day to do things and lunch is provided.

$68.66 actually. OP gets double time on weekends according to the post.
