Ah, yes, good old metric time.
They tried it in France after the revolution IIRC. Didn't work all that well :)
I think it was 10 day week with only one day weekend. So 9 days of work instead of 6. Not sure why people didn't like it.
But they were only 10 hour days, so it evened out.
10 hours of work or 10 hours total?
10 looong hours
They weren't that long, just 100 minutes.
100 longer decimal minutes. One Earth's rotation was divided into 10 decimal hours, so each decimal hour was 2.4 standard hours.
You're telling me they worked 24 hours at a time?!
