Incorporate the metric clock into a "metric" calendar:

1 year = 360 days + 5 days of Festivus (6 for leap year)

360 days = 12 months

1 month = 3 weeks

1 week = 10 days

10 days = 6 work days + 4 day weekend

metric is base10. you'd want a to start with 1 day being a single earth revolution and scale it down. 1/10th of a day is a deciday (an hour) and so on. or start with a certain period of cesium decay as a second and scale up
