When hubby has to work on Saturdays, I am disappointed because I look forward to spending the weekends with him. But I certainly don't blame him for it....I suppose the reason she gets upset is because she is home all week and wants to see you on your days off...
You are going to have to make it up to her......I am assuming she works just as hard at home making a nice life for the two of you

i think that you need to sit down with your wife to discuss the situation further. I no that partners may get slightly distressed if the other is called into work however it is just one of those things. I do feel that your wife is taking the situation too far by not speaking to you for days but what your wife has to consider is thinking about all the other tI'mes both you and your wife have together. One day every so often is fine in my opinion,obviously you don't want to work on a day off every time but im sure that there is plenty of time for both of you to be together :) hope this helped

You could always try taking one day to be with your wife. Of course I don't know what the income is like in your household but your wife is sending you a message...in a childish way but a message none the less. Talk to her and discuss that in order to make her wants and needs a reality you have to work, but you will try and take at least one day off in order to be with her.

Better get use to it as wives get mad at you for the slightest things as years go on. Haven't you heard of the old addage..... "you can't live with them and you can't live out them"? Even after I retired my wife kept complaining because I didn't cart her around any time i went some where. If you think it's rough now... just wait until you retire and have to be around her 24/7, and that's when they really become a royal pain in the a**. I do have to admit that I do miss her after almost 48 years of marrage when she passed on before me.

The two of you need to make specific plans for a day off. Not EVERY day off, but maybe every OTHER day off. If you get called to work, tell them that you have plans and can't go in. Get her to agree with this, and things will work out, hopefully.

Try to be calm and tell her how you feel....I think she's acting a little bit childish but then again I don't know how often you get called to go to work on your days off

I agree with the first answer here and to top that off tell her to get a job and you won't have to go in on your days off.

She has a point if you work a lot. If it is your day off, you just shouldn't answer the phone. Even just doing that a few times will help.

Tell her to get over herself. Do not give her any money either and she if she minds you going in on your day off.
