Weekends only matter as much as you argue here if your company owns your ass 9-5 Mon-Fri (plus commute, sometimes). If you're able to be more flexible, it's nice to go out when everyone else is working. I understand your point, though, I work max 30-35 hours a week, often on weekends, and spend as much time as I can with my son and wife. |

I'd adjust that to "If you and your family and most of your friends are able to be more flexible". I went back to a mostly conventional schedule after I realised that while I was doing a lot that I wanted to on my own, spending more time with friends was a higher priority. I can see that if most of your friends are academics or similar then it could work better (indeed I found that in this remote work era it's become easier to meet people during "work hours", so if that sticks then maybe it'll be time to reevaluate).
