There's good reason why decimal hours never caught on.

Ha ha. When I was working as a tech at a university
electronics shop, the pencil pushers decreed that all
time cards were to be filled out in tenths of hours
from now on. To make the acounting for time more
accurate and save money.

We all commented that this was indeed kind of lame.
The shop manager concurred, and said, "just round
them *up* to the nearest 0.5 hour." I think
he might have also said '****-em' but then might
have been my trick ear.
