Am I harming my Nicad batteries...
 
For the past several weeks I have been charging my systems to fly on the weekends, but so far have been unable to do so mostly because of work commitments. Will this constant charge but not use situation harm my batteries in any way?

Check out the article at the Battery Clinic on the subject.
Keep your batteries in the ready state without damaging overcharge.

You probably didn't do a lot of harm, but it is best if don't leave then on a constant C/10 that your system chargers provide.
