kinyoubi - 04-05-2008, 12:16 AM

so in japanese the word for friday is kinyoubi, and sensei says that's because the kanji term "kin" means "money" or "gold" and was used because friday was normally payday. so that got me thinking, I've worked 7ish jobs, and not one of them had friday as the set payday, so I was wondering how many people actually get paid on friday. ...kinda weird, yes, but it intrests me...
