Towards a divisible week and calendar

Abstract

The Gregorian calendar and the 7-day week are impractical systems of common timekeeping. More practical would be a calendar based on a 6-day week and a 30-day month, such that the year is divided into 12 months plus a monthless week at the end of the year comprising 5 days (or 6 days in a leap year), and each year begins with a new week, i.e. the monthless week would end in the old year, even if it lasts only 5 days. Business and science would benefit from such a secularization of the calendar.
