Another type of weekend work is the freelance kind - i.e. work for organisations other than your main employers, but done in the office at weekends. I did it regularly whilst with my last employer, so as to surf the 'Net at their expense and make use of the office archives and equipment. I can't say that I ever felt guilty about it, since I was only doing it because of the bad-joke rate of pay I was getting for my main job.
Ultimately, though, you can't beat being freelance and working from when you feel like it until when you stop feeling like it, with as many coffee/cigarette/h2g2 breaks along the way as you fancy. Corporate prisoners, escape now!
