Is it possible to raid on P99 without being unemployed?

This is not to shame anyone who is unemployed or anyone who raids, but I am actually curious about this. Last Spring when I played on P99 I remember and I finally got to level 50, all of my friends were rushing to Sol B at 4AM on a Tuesday to park at the entrance all day long just in case Lord Nagafen spawned.

They said this was what was expected and required to be a part of their guild, and I just kind of wonder how normal people could do this? It was during this moment that I envisioned a bunch of older, mostly retired people playing P99 to re-live the Nostalgia from their younger days.

But is this actually the case?

I'm genuinely curious.
