Funny, I have to ask permission to work on weekends since they have to pay me more for it.

Sure I’ll support, but let’s talk about adequate weekend bonuses first.
And you sure won’t mind that I’ll take Monday off in exchange, will you?

If this can be sprung on me at short notice, then I want “on call” money, so I leave that weekend free and don’t make plans. You can consider that I’m on retainer for those weekends, then pay me extra if I’m actually called upon.

Wait, you guys are getting paid for on call?

Legally mandated where I come from. If you aren’t being paid, they aren’t actually allowed to make you come in on a day off.

They must not have the ever popular “salary - exempt” category there, which would be really nice.

At my company it depends on expected response time, I think up to your salary for the fastest response tiers. And some roles can exchange for time off.
