Of course we can't even agree if it's the third or the fourth day
Most of my life I wondered why it's called "middle of the week" when actually Thursday's the day with an equal number of days in a week coming before and after. I often thought maybe weekend's subtracted. Only in my late 20s I learned that there are places where the first day of the week is Sunday lol
The funny part is the green countries in this map don't start the week on a sunday. I guess they used to and the name stayed
Neither does the week start on Sundays in the blue countries
I'm swiss and I always assumed its because of the workweek being Monday to Friday. But only a few decades ago Saturday was pretty mich a workday as well, so that probably isnt it
Index 0 vs Index 1.
More directly, we can't agree if Sunday or Monday is the first day. IMO Sunday is the first day. Calendars look better with the weekends acting like bookends.
