You don't say whether your journey to work involves more than one bus,
or how many days a week you work. Whether a zone 2 and 3 period
Travelcard is the best option for you or not depends on this. The
current price for one for 7 days is GBP15. If you work five days a
week and take only one bus to work, Oyster PAYG would be much cheaper
- GBP10 per week (10 x GBP1). Two buses each way and the Travelcard is
cheaper.

The benefit of weekend travel is a bonus, plus, when your bus is turned
short, it really does save the aggro of trying to get the damn drivers to
transfer you across without paying again on your Oyster Card... plus for
others, the flexibility of a travelcard allows you to take different buses
and routes to/from work if you do not always need to go to the same place
etc.
