Yes it is. It's also the first day of my weekend. The week for me starts with two days I have off, and then five days I work.

Monday is the first day of the week to most normal people. Sunday is like the final day of rest before the week.

Ugh, I guess it technically is the first day but it certainly isn't in my book.

You're always logical and we're always confused. It must be such an honor being you!

I'm just making a point here. I get two days off at the beginning, and then I work. Everyone else thinks of Monday as the first day of the week though it isn't. Mine follows a logical pattern.

Wow, complete agreement with a BRTD post.  Maybe I should print it out and frame it.

Have we changed the calendar?  You can't just make proclamations that since Monday starts YOUR week that it is now the first day of the week.

<googles>

Son of a bitch.  I guess there is an argument to be had for Monday.  It's the ISO standard for poops sake.

The first day of the week is of course Monday.
Of course this is one of the things on which Americans disagree with the rest of the world.

No. Saturday is traditionally the start of the week. Especially if you come from a Judeo-Christian belief set.

Mmm, but I'd always thought that the Sabbath day, being the resting day, was the final day of the week.  Isn't that how Genesis puts it?

good chance i'm making an ass of myself here
