Can you count weekends when waiting on mail
A common frustration!
When waiting for mail, it's common to feel like the weekends are dragging on forever. But, technically, weekends are still part of the week, and you should count them when waiting for mail.
Here's a breakdown:
- Monday to Friday: 5 working days
- Saturday and Sunday: 2 non-working days (weekends)
So, if you're waiting for mail and it's supposed to arrive on a specific date, you should count the weekends as part of the total waiting time. For example:
- If your mail is supposed to arrive on Wednesday, and it's currently Monday, you would count 4 working days (Monday to Thursday) and 2 non-working days (Friday and Saturday).
- If your mail is supposed to arrive on Friday, and it's currently Tuesday, you would count 3 working days (Tuesday to Thursday) and 2 non-working days (Friday and Saturday).
Remember, weekends are still part of the week, and you should count them when waiting for mail.
