I smell BS on this note. Why would the Chinese take Saturday and Sunday off? That is a western custom.

We don’t know for sure of course, but that is a good catch.

Sunday, or one day a week off for manual workers is pretty typical all over Asia, I think. But Saturday or a second day off - that is not common - more like rare.

China has adopted a 5 day work week.

Even in the busiest factory, the work week is 5 1/2 days.
