Friday was a short day when we had six-day work week. It still is, for those
places open on Firday.
It is not just because of the spirit of the Sabbath: During the winter the
days are too short for people to get home before the Sabbath starts, and
since observant Jews don't drive during the Sabbath, they would be stuck at
work...
