Does this sound ok to native speakers?
Hello, I'm translating some phrases for schedules into English:
1. Working hours: 24/7
2. Days off: Saturday, Sanday
3. Without days off
Do they sound natural to native speakers?
Thank you:))

I don't know what you're trying to do but here are my suggestions.
If you said working hours = 24/7 then why would you say weekends will be off? Thats' not 24/7 anymore. You're just contradicting yourself.
1 - It's not sanday, it's Sunday
Also instead of saying Saturdays and Sundays, you can just say weekends
Well, this is what I came up with, based on the little info you provided.

All 3 have problems. You spelled Sunday incorrectly. No one works 24/7. If you did work 24/7 you wouldn't get Saturday and Sunday off.

Yes, they sound just fine to me. However, you could change the last one to "Without any days off" if you wanted to.
