Antiwork

Got an offer for a job I think I actually wouldn’t hate, but I would have to work Sundays. I’m not sure if I should take it.

I 27F am miserable in my current job, and I've done a few interviews now for a job I think I'd actually enjoy.

I 27F am miserable in my current job, and I've done a few interviews now for a job I think I'd actually enjoy. I found out that in May-August, it's a normal M-F schedule, but for the rest of the year, I have to work Sundays and get Wednesday & Saturday off. I knew when applying that there may be weekend work involved, but I got an offer, and now it's hitting me that I have to decide if I want to give up a normal weekday / weekend schedule outside of the summer time. I'm scared that working Sundays is just going to get in the way of life in general – taking weekend trips, making Saturday night plans etc, all of that needs to be factored in. They did say they're very flexible with time off and don't deny requests for it which is good, but still. I know that sacrifices need to be made but I'm really stuck on this one and am scared of making a bad decision since I've always worked M-F. I really do think I would enjoy the work itself and my coworkers, so I just don't know what to do. I can't stay in my current job much longer because I'm losing my mind staying there. Anyone who's worked weekends or currently works weekends have any input?
