<p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal">Hi everyone,<br>
<br>
I think you misunderstood Ben:</p>

the Norwegian<br>
>> language mailto:<a href="mailto:norsklassen-subscribe@yahoogroups.com">norsklassen-subscribe@yahoogroups.com</a>.
Every now and then I<br>

on a<br>
>> Monday. They were asking if this practice goes on in the Brittish
Isles or<br>
>> elsewhere, being that they mentioned that the EU does it.<br>
> In my community it's legally forbidden to produce noise on a Sunday (the<br>

> convenient I guess to start the working week on Monday then as well?</p>
<p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal">At work (Tornesch near Hamburg, Germany)
I frequently hear some people<br>
setting dates in "Kalenderwochen" (calendar week) like<br>
"This project needs to be done till Kalenderwoche 12". This even pops<br>
up in todo lists and it always makes me feel to be a calendrical<br>
analphabet. The only thing I can do is walk to a wall calendar with<br>
"Kalenderwochen" at the left margin, translate the week number into a<br>
proper date and take the date into my personal todo list.</p>
<p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"><br>
> Personally I have no preference whatever though...24/7 is perfect for me.</p>
<p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal">Well, since converting to
Seventh-Day-Adventism, I think that it does<br>
matter. My advice is that 24/7 is definitely not a good idea. The text<br>
that contains the defining passages about our western business week is<br>
called "10 commandments" and not "10 suggestions". And it
urges us to<br>
take a proper amount of rest.<br>
