Isnt this the format where your birthday would fall on the same exact day every year? That sounds like it sucks if your birthday is sometimes on a Monday.
We can't improve the calendar, some people will have to celebrate their birthday on a day that isn't their real birthday like they already do most of the time!
If you get birthday leave at your job, it would suck to not have your birthday on a weekday.
Realistically though, how often does a birthday fall on a weekday? 1/4, 1/5? I think eventually we'd be okay with it.
I dont think so. Anybody working retail or anything thats not an office suite would get fucked during the week permanently. They ain't getting birthday leave on a Wednesday at McDonald's.
Might be free food though 🤔
Lol sorry you can't have the day off, here is a McDouble and we got one scoop of old soft serve out of the machine for you before it broke again.
Given that five days of the week are weekdays, it already would suck 5/7 of the time, but people already make do.
Yeah, but we also aren't sentenced to a Wednesday birthday forever. Our birthdays are constantly on different days.
It feels like less of a big deal than you're making it out to be, but I might be too old and cynical.
I'm just discussing it. I wouldn't die on a monthly calender hill of any particular type to be honest lol
It wouldn't be on the same day every year because there would still be 1 extra day each year and 2 extra days on leap years. The proposed 13 month calendar would have a "month" that is just 1 or 2 days as "New Years". That would cause the days to shift over time.
No, the extra days are "outside" the calendar, they're days of their own so regular calendar days don't shift year after year
