Thursday Vs. Saturday — the Weekend Debate Continues

I found the asynchronous work week in Saudi really made the eight years that I was there fly by!

Thursday Vs. Saturday — the Weekend Debate Continues: "When Saudis take Thursdays and Fridays off, much of the world is working. When much of the world takes Saturday and Sunday off, Saudis are working. If you want to send a wire transfer back home, for four days of the week it is common for either the sending bank or the receiving bank to be closed. A conference call abroad is best done on the three days of the week where you (in Saudi Arabia) and your partner (in just about anywhere else) are both working."
