Mostly because Saturday and Sunday are collectively known as the weekend and it doesn't make a lot of sense to start the week in the middle of what everyone agrees is the end of the week.
- merlincorey 4y agoEvery end is a new beginning, according to an old aphorism. This would imply that a Weekend and a Weekbegin could easily coincide.
- adhesive_wombat 4y ago> everyone agrees Not everyone, Israel has has Friday and Saturday off.
- eps 4y agoIs Sunday a work day in Israel?
- adhesive_wombat 4y agoUsually, yes.
- mcv 4y agoI think it's a bit naive to expect sense from anything related to dates and times at this point. It's all just accumulated history, and historically, Sunday has always been the first day of the week, no matter what people today think about it.
