To the best of my knowledge, there are quite a lot of people who do this kind of thing, to order documents to be submitted on Monday morning at midnight on Friday.
There are also quite a lot of people who do this kind of thing naturally, to order a difficult task that must take a considerable amount of time at the last working day of the year, and ask for a report of the results at the beginning working day of New Year.

On weekends and long holidays, for a person who
- doesn't have time with your family or lover,
- is not interested in my hobby,
- doesn't take care of my parents,
and
- doesn't do free research and writing columns,
there doesn't seems be no problem for them at all.

To begin with, however, I don't have a qualification to blame the person in eyes from above.
Depending on the situation, I am going to issue such orders to others.
I'm trying to think "that is I" who have the responsibility that can not control this situation, after all (Even if it is an unreasonable command from a higher rank).
So, I will not order to others with a stance, like "You must work on holiday, of course, because it is a work."
In my case, I am going to behave humbly grovelingly.
