Growing up in Saudi Arabia, we started our work week on Saturday, with Wednesday being the last day of the work (school for me) week. It took me a long time to transition over to think about Saturday/Sunday as the days off. I still get random pangs of excitement on Wednesday thinking it’s the end of the week if my brain hasn’t warmed up.
I believe this is still the case in the gulf states and I would assume other Islamic countries.

I Googled and look what I found: "Identify the first day of the week based on the locale" Ref: https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=000338932&type=1 https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=000338932&type=... The entries for Indonesia don't make sense to me.
