int workDays = 0;
//Return 0 if start and end are the same
if (startCal.getTimeInMillis() == endCal.getTimeInMillis()) {
return 0;
}
if (startCal.getTimeInMillis() > endCal.getTimeInMillis()) {
startCal.setTime(endDate);
endCal.setTime(startDate);
}
do {
startCal.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, 1);
if (startCal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK) != Calendar.SATURDAY
&& startCal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK) != Calendar.SUNDAY) {
