      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.

              100 longer decimal minutes. One Earth’s rotation was divided into 10 decimal hours, so each decimal hour was 2.4 standard hours.

                    I might have gotten mixed up. My thought process was, they worked 10 hour days, and you said each decimal hour was 2.4 regular hours. So 10×2.4 = 24
