  We do, it just depends on the time signature.

    While you are counting that switch over to 10 hour days. There is no reason there has to be 60 minutes in an hour or 60 seconds. 12/24/60 are just divisible well.

      10 hours days are not standard. Music time signatures are different depending on the music and composer preference
