I cannot accept this meeting because it’s at 5am (reoccurring). Is this legit to say?

First confirm if you’re actually needed or can work off the Minutes for any follow ups. But if you are... Can you take it from home? Once a week? And for how long meaning when does the series end?

Who requested the meeting? What’s it for? Are you expected to actually show up and take notes?

If a client wants a 5am recurring call it’s not on the analyst to blow it off.

If you have an associate on the account that you trust, ask them their thoughts before sending a flippant reply...
