How to make a decimal time system?

But really all you need to do is make the day equal to 10 units.

You have 10 Googies in a day. Each Googie equals 100 moogies.

there are 100 boogies in a moogie.

So at 6am in our current system now becomes 2.5 am decimal.

That is - 50 moogies past the 2nd Googie

The real problem with changing time systems is getting everyone to agree to change.

Pros and Cons:

Less hours in the day means you don’t live as long.
Hours are longer means you work more for less money.
Having a time system based on ten is too simple for complicated people and it might
put some experts out of work.

Some reference books may have to be rewritten, which will annoy publishers, but give the Encyclopaedia buyers and excellent reason to push the new edition.

Cars will travel faster because they will be able to travel further in an hour so this will mean
we will get to work more quickly, meaning we will work even longer - which is a unlooked for synergy between two points above.

What’s your vote? Should we have a decimal time system or would you be as confused as the author?

P.S I do hope you realize there is some attempt at humor in the above post.
