The tenth digit

Flint · 03-18-2008, 04:09 PM

I think of the first ten digits as 0 through 9, with 9 being the 10th single-digit number.

But this does remind me of something that bothers me: Sunday is the END of the week. NOT the beginning. Monday morning, when you clock in at work, is the beginning of the week for most people. Sunday is the last day in the weekend, which is the very last part of the week. Monday begins the next week. . . . It's stupid to have calendars arranged with Sunday as the beginning of the week.

If you go to your User CP and select "Edit Options" / "Date and Time Options" you can set the start of the week to any day you like.

I have mine set for Wednesday.

The calendars I actually use (and, I bet, the calendars you actually use) have an option to set the first day of the week.

You're ranting about an obsolete technology (paper calendars).

Your face is an obsolete technology.
