But 13 months of 28 days is only 364 days. After 28 years, the months would be shifted and the seasons would no longer line up, which throws off a whole lot of stuff that needs proper timing like farming. It's not perfect, but the current calender is the way it is for a reason.
The last day is a dedicated new year's celebration day, two on leap years.
Ok, I think I like this idea now. Where do I sign up?
I really like it because in order to keep the days of the week aligning that holiday must be a special non day of the week. It would lead to conversations like. "What day of the week is it?" "It isn't"
New Year's Festival. Mandatory day off for everyone except emergency services
The thing you have to remember is Jesse is a methhead
I would prefer 12 months of 30 days each, 6 days per week, then an intercalary week of 5-6 days. 6 days per week means 4 day work week, staggered weekends for those jobs where 24/6 availability would be preferred.
As long as we're wishing for things, I also would like to change our base 10 system for a base 12 system (duodecimal or dozenal). 12 is a superior highly composite number, and it's a bit easier to divide things into thirds, which is more common than fifths.
I've always heard this proposed with a new years day(s). You have one or more non month days at the end of the year to true things up
