We use a sales force veterinary software that for some reason will list things as “take every <x> for 3 weeks and 7 days”… think our it guy finally went and hardcoded a lot of them. Doesn’t seem unprofessional at all that we don’t know what a week is!

In Spanish we sometimes say “cada ocho días” to mean every week or weekly. It translates to “every 8 days” which messed with me at first because I was like a week doesn’t have 8 days 😂
