Ask them for context whenever they do this sort of thing. No one is booking a meeting on my calendar without telling me the purpose. Not only as a professional courtesy thing, but because if the meeting is actually necessary (doubt it is with this coworker), it's in both of our best interests for me to prepare notes ahead of time.
