In some Russian manufacturing in the past, they had a system of 10 hours on, and 20 off. I don't know what they had in line of a work-week, if they had one day off a week, or what. Maybe someone can answer that. But...

The whole world uses clocks. The whole modern world uses the 24-hour day, with either 24-hour or 12-hour clocks.

Stupid Western Europe. They want to be metric. Metric is 10. They try to spread metric to the USA and around the world. Yet they use the 12-hour or 24-hour clocks.

Russia could show the rest of the world what "10" really is like. How? Make a 10-hour day, with 5 hours of daylight and 5 hours of darkness. Divide each hour into 10 equal segments rather than stupid minutes. Show the world what 10 is. Show them how hypocritical they are with all their 10 measurements, yet they won't apply their 10 to time.

10 is really a silly base number to use. 8 or 16 would be much more logical.
But in the end it all boils down to historical reasons.

I used to think like that. I wondered why the Maker gave us 10 fingers. Maybe 8 wouldn't be enough. Maybe 16 would get in the way.

Base12 would actually be more convenient in everyday life than base10.
Think about it: 12 is easy dividable with: 1,2,3,4,6. Where 10 can only easy be divided with 1,2,5.... 10 is just a silly number to have as base
