I block my calendar from 9-10 am. If you’re scheduling a meeting with me during the first hour of my workday, you better be in Europe and/or really important (and preferably treating me to breakfast).

This is absolutely brilliant
I feel this

10am isn’t bad 🙄

Not bad, it's HORRIBLE.
Damn, what time do you wake up/ stop working/ go to bed?
I mean there’s no reason for you to stay up that late, if you went to bed at midnight you solve your problem…
Had a 4:30am meeting today. It can always be worse

Hot tip, if you have dual monitors. Start a meeting with yourself and share one of the screens, it’ll look like you’re presenting. This usually works for me and if anyone still bothers you, tell them to crawl back into the hole they came from

I'm going to have to do this from now on! So brilliant

I’d take 10am meetings over the dual 11am + 1PM meetings some of my coworkers schedule.
Thanks for cutting my lunch short, fam. I really needed to attend two meetings that simultaneously started late and ran over because we needed that filler convo about the football game.
I was like this but now I prefer to get all my meetings done before 12 so I can focus on actual work for the rest of the day uninterrupted.

I work on the IT side in Mountain Time zone and all my calls are with Florida and the UK. Starts at 6:30 or 7, but I’m always done with calls by noon. Wouldn’t change a thing.
