Flaws:

  • fails to address leap years
  • fails to address 365th day
  • moon cycle will still slowly deviate
  • retains clunky 7-day week that doesn't interact will with decimal counting system

I like it, but I got an even better proposal. Weeks should have ten day weeks, and each month should have 3 weeks. summer/winter solstice and the spring/autumn equinox as well as new years day are special holidays that fall between months and interrupt the week cycle. In leap years, new years is two days.

The 1st, 11th and 21st of each month are now Mondays, so you can tell the weekday of any date. Months are the same length just like in Jesse's proposal, but an even 30 instead of a clunky 28.

I've thought about this a lot

Our corporate overlords will want 8-day work-weeks. LOL

[-] realitista@lemm.ee 15 points 1 year ago

Yeah I'm only in if we get 3 days off per week.

[-] PhreakyByNature@feddit.uk 72 points 1 year ago

No dammit, we want 3 days off in the current 7 day week cycle. 5 days off a 10 day week works for me. We ask for that, get negotiated down to 4 day weekends and it works.

[-] realitista@lemm.ee 14 points 1 year ago

Fair enough, make it happen!

[-] MightyGalhupo@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

That would be amazing. Rn we take a little under a third of a week off. With that we would take almost half a week off.

I dunno man, if hump day meant I still had the rest of the day plus 3 more days until the weekend, I think I'd snap.

[-] realitista@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah you'd definitely need one day in the middle. Or Id say even better, a 3 day and 2x2 day work weeks with days off in between.

[-] dojan@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Five days off at least.
